3 Welcome to the 1st Annual C.O.R.E Clinical Overview of the Recovery Experience July 21-24, 2013 C4 Recovery Solutions (C4) is honored to present a new addiction and recovery conference the 1st Annual Clinical Overview of the Recovery Experience (C.O.R.E.). C4 is a 501 (c) (3) organization dedicated to promoting the design, provision, and monitoring of outcomes-based addiction services and providing platforms to integrate varied academic disciplines and professional activities within the fields of addiction and behavioral health. C4 also operates two other premier addiction conferences the Cape Cod Symposium on Addictive Disorders and the West Coast Symposium on Addictive Disorders. C4 is run by a volunteer board, three staff members, several invaluable consultants and the graciousness of many volunteers and friends. The C.O.R.E. conference is an opportunity for addiction professionals to advance their understanding of the principles behind abstinence-based recovery practices. The conference is structured as a forum to increase the collective understanding of recovery processes. The goal is to improve outcomes by better integrating abstinence-based practices and Twelve-Step principles into therapeutic initiatives. Developed more than 75-years ago, the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous have withstood the test of time and science to emerge as a primary foundation for recovery from both alcoholism and drug addiction. Many conferences focus on science and practice but with an alarming and growing emphasis on drug replacement therapies. Recovery is increasingly playing a secondary role. While science and new clinical tools are important, they cannot replace the Twelve Steps as a key means of facilitating the personal growth that is necessary for a sustainable and long-term recovery. The C.O.R.E. conference highlights the critical importance of 12-Step processes and abstinence-based recovery and presents new options for productively integrating useful clinical tools into a larger recoveryoriented treatment culture. C4 offers a special debt of gratitude to the CORE Founding Patrons as well as the Platinum, Gold, and Silver Patrons, who with their generous support and underwriting, allow us to continue to provide you with the best return on your investment of time, energy, and money.

The Struggle to Define Abstinence William Borchert, Burns Brady, MD, ASAM, FASAM, ABFP, FAAFP, Judith Landau, MD, DPM, LMFT, CAI, BRI II and Robert Mooney, MD e Supported by Willingway & Linking Human Systems/LINC Foundation Level of Instruction: All William Borchert will introduce the panel for the evening presentation. Dr. Brady will be discussing treatment attempts over the years that have jeopardized recovery for substance use disordered patients. Many of these attempts have been, and still are, presented as good science. Dr. Landau will discuss that appreciating and understanding the role of abstinence in the effective treatment paradigm can be a daunting process, until difference between recovery and recovered is embraced.only one of those words applies to the journey of the addicted soul; and if you re asking which one - you re probably at the wrong conference. The only 5

6 Sun.-Mon. Schedule of Events safe path to full recovery embraces abstinence. While abstinence in the face of substance abuse is a bit easier to understand for most, abstinence with regard to process addictions is not only less concrete, it is impossible when your struggle is food or managing chronic pain, for example. Food abstinence is its own condition, but those blurred lines must be addressed. We will also address the need for medication when there are conditions such as the need for real pain relief, alternative methods, which may include medication. Without implementation of a balanced bio-psycho-social-spiritual-cultural approach to recovery, the hope for healthy, long-term recovery is slight at best. Dr. Mooney believes that the commitment to a philosophy grounded in minimization of centrally acting substances is becoming increasingly difficult as harm reduction models predominate. This is due in part to the varied experiences in the application of abstinence principles throughout the treatment continuum. By openly sharing our success and failure we can help to create an atmosphere which is attractive to a new generation of addiction professionals who may recognize the advantages of abstinence in the promotion of recovery. Immediately following the Keynote panel presentation, William Borchert will be signing copies of When Two Loves Collide, the story of the Mooney family. Monday, July 22 Monday Morning Plenary: 8:30 AM - 10:00 AM #200. REMOVING DEFECTS OF CHARACTER: THE SPIRITUAL JOURNEy Cardwell Nuckols, PhD e Supported by Burning Tree Recovery Ranch Level of Instruction: All Character defects are a source of suffering and can lead to relapse and other self-defeating behaviors. At the root of these defects are narcissistic beliefs about the self (I, me and mine) and a distorted self-image. Defects of character respond poorly to psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy and are more amenable to change utilizing a spiritual program and spiritual tools such as humility, honesty, acceptance and surrender. This skills-training event will teach clinician s how to assist clients in the removal of these defects including pride, greed, jealousy and envy. Understanding that I am jealous and I will change is an illusion and the fact that change occurs in the moment will be at the heart of this transformation. Morning Break in the Exhibit Hall: 10:00 AM 10:45 AM Monday Morning Workshops: 10:45 AM - 12:15 PM #210. Moving Past the 1, 2, 3 Tango: How to help Chronic Relapsers through the 12 Steps Heidi Voet Smith, MA, LPC, LCPC e Supported by Burning Tree Recovery Ranch Level of Instruction: Intermediate/Advanced This workshop will identify the number one reason why individuals continue to chronically relapse, as well as discuss detailed tools to help these individuals find lasting sobriety through the 12-steps. #211. How and Why Values Heal Addiction: Power of the 12 Steps Craig Nakken, MSW, LICSW, LMFT Level of Instruction: All Practice these principles in all your affairs, principles before personalities, spiritual principles are transformative principals that have the power to destroy or to transform ugly into beautiful. The 12 steps are a series of positive spiritual principles that counteract the negative spiritual principles that become as common as the illness of addiction progresses. This workshop will focus on how positive spiritual principles heal. It will examine what their properties for healing are and how this fits with the human brain. Hopefully the workshop will help those counselors not familiar with the 12 steps come to understand and respect how they transform. The workshop will teach different frameworks that are easy to use with clients to help them in their transformative process. 6

Why Can t We All Just Get Along: The Happy Marriage of Clinical Innovation and the 12-Steps Mandy Baker, MS, LCDC & Chris Raymer e Supported by Origins Recovery Centers Level of Instruction: All This workshop considers the history of substance abuse treatment, its interaction with Alcoholics Anonymous, and the strengths and weaknesses of this interaction. Presenting from the perspectives of the treatment industry and the membership of 12-Step fellowship, this presentation seeks to dispel common assumptions and misunderstandings between these entities that hinder client care and lead to confusion about recovery from addiction. In addition, it provides recommendations for clinicians about their role in facilitating participation in 12-Step programs and provokes discussion about new ways forward that utilize the strengths of both clinical tools and the time-tested 12-Step experience. Monday Early Afternoon Workshops: 1:45 PM - 3:15 PM #251. Essential Practices for Recovery Communities Chico West, LPC/S e Supported by Gaston House Level of Instruction: Introductory/Intermediate This session will discuss what has demonstrated to be the most effective practices for establishing long-term recovery through abstinence in clients transitioning out of primary care. We will also address operators of primaryand aftercare facilities as well as individual therapists, who more often than not do not have the extensive resources and wealth of experience available to more established and far-reaching treatment centers. #252. The Marriage of Clinical and Sober Living Experience William Simmons, CASAC, ICADC e Supported by The Granite House Level of Instruction: Introductory Workshop will discuss the importance of meeting the needs of individuals seeking sustainable recovery.

Fenley, MD, BC ASAM e Supported by Hard Choices Level of Instruction: Intermediate This presentation will focus on the inseparable nature of humility and spirituality in a 12 step facilitated recovery process. Humility will be defined as a painful journey related to both increased ego and decreased self-esteem. Perfectionism, pride, piety, and other forms of an inflated ego will be contrasted with the abuse, fear of abandonment, and the code of silence that fosters poor self-esteem. In addition, the relationship of spirituality to humility regarding the processes of surrender, anonymity, and traditions of 12 step recovery will be reviewed. #276. Regulating Emotions through the Integration of DBT and the Twelve Steps Bari Platter, MS, RN & Osvaldo Cabral, LPC, MA, CAC III e Supported by The University of Colorado Hospital- CeDAR Level of Instruction: Intermediate/Advanced This workshop will focus on the work the presenters have completed in integrating Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) approaches with Twelve Step philosophy.

Participants will have the opportunity to practice the skills that the presenters use with clients for emotion regulation. 7

8 Mon.-Tues. Schedule of Events Monday Evening Plenary: 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM #299. Passion, Purpose, Path Mark Lundholm e Supported by Burning Tree Recovery Ranch Level of Instruction: All This presentation is specific to healthcare, addiction and treatment professionals. Addiction, codependency, alcoholism and other dysfunctional family dynamics are all topics discussed here. Attendees will be invited to examine themselves professionally AND personally in order to rediscover passion, purpose and potential. This workshop will remind the pros why they work with the cons!! One of the lines used in this workshop is this is the job I have because it is the work I was born to do! A resounding message here is the ability to be productively selfish so that the professional healer is healed and the healed become healthier and more available to provide what is required at work, home and for themselves. The path of the healer is extended by narrowing the focus of health: our own. Tuesday, July 23 Tuesday Morning Plenary: 8:30 AM - 10:00 AM #300. The Spirituality of Taking Action: Clinical Intervention and 12 Step Recovery Debra Jay e Supported by The Retreat Level of Instruction: Intermediate/Advanced Intervention is evolving into a practice that more fully engages the family in the recovery process. This workshop explores the role of intervention before, during and after treatment. Additionally, the importance of the clinical itervention is discussed as a professional who is capable of working as a co-case manager with the treatment team and a liaison between the treatment team and the family. We explore the expanded role of clinical interventionists, the opportunities often missed in the intervention process and how clinical interventionists can elevate the reputation of the addictions field. Additionally, we explore individualizing the intervention process and the importance of educating the members of the intervention team to understand the larger picture of treatment and recovery. Morning Break in the Exhibit Hall: 10:00 AM 10:45 AM Tuesday Morning Workshops: 10:45 AM - 12:15 PM #310. Medication Kindling- When Prescribing Meets Compulsion Robert W. Mooney, MD e Supported by Willingway Level of Instruction: Intermediate/Advanced This workshop will be a discussion involving the idea that exposure to low dose centrally acting substances can provide a trigger for high risk relapse behavior. #311. The Therapeutic Benefits of Service to Others During the Treatment Process Dan Reed, CAC III, LADC e Supported by Jaywalker Lodge Level of Instruction: Intermediate Webster s dictionary defines service as the work performed in contribution to the welfare of others. For those in early recovery from addiction to alcohol and other drugs, service is widely regarded as an effective form of therapy, providing respite from self-centered and self-destructive behaviors, and building self-esteem through the highly esteemable act of helping others. This presentation will explore the roots of service in 12 Step culture; as well as provide an overview of some of the research connecting volunteerism, altruism and community service to long term sobriety.

The Movement of Grace Jennifer Angier, NCAC II, GCADC-II e Supported by Foundations Recovery Network Level of Instruction: Intermediate Participants in this workshop will be challenged to recognize the intimate qualities of the absence, the emergence and the living experience of grace in patients struggling with process addictions. Innovative approaches and a variety of patient interventions will be shared in an interactive, experiential setting that will help participants identify the spirituality behind a collaborative therapeutic exchange. Through the use of movie clips, literature and music, this interactive dialogue will enable the clinician to expand the realm of traditional therapeutic skills in the treatment of the dual addicted patient. #376. Past and Present Sense: Empowering the Recovering Person with the Wisdom of Recovery Principles using Creative Therapy Techniques and Treatment Approaches Will Radford, LCSW e Cumberland Heights Level of Instruction: Intermediate This workshop will offer creative ways to deliver the 12 step program of recovery to the newly recovering client as well as those who have established sober time. Relapse is a reality with addiction yet we do not need to just accept that it is a prevalent reality and part of the process. It is essential to understand the early stages of recovery and what is really needed to empower the new person. When we as clinicians are engaged in a creative process we will help ensure that our passion for recovery is transmitted to the client. We will explore experiential and traditional educations models that can instill a foundation that offers a solid understanding for persons to grow from. Art, music, creative writing, psychodrama and recovery history all offer fertile ground for clinicians to work with clients and this will be a venue to learn methods and techniques to utilize them. Using these methods to treatment plan for co-occurring disorders will be examined as well. The goal is to bring the 12 step Design for Living alive in an exciting and refreshing way. 10

Pride and Prejudice: Understanding the Barriers for Older Adults with Addiction Caroline Smith, MA, LPC, CSAT-S, CMAT, EMDR II e Supported by Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services Level of Instruction: Intermediate/Advances Addiction has a surprising new face and it s not a happy one. Among adults 60 and older, chemical addiction is one of the fastest growing health care problems facing our country. Census estimates predict that our current older adult populations will more than double by Yet, even as the number of older adults suffering from addiction rapidly climbs, this path of pain remains underestimated, under identified, under diagnosed and undertreated. Baby boomers are going bust, and grandma s self-medicating cocktails aren t cheering her up. The goal of this session is to provide mental health professionals an overview of the factors facing this complex cohort and a review of SAMHSA recent treatment protocol for this population. #401. Healing the Healers Bill Corbett e Supported by Corbett Business Consulting, LLC Level of Instruction: All The health of the culture of an organization is the most important aspect to insure survival and longevity. This must be the top priority to achieve the objectives of the organization. Therapists, counselors and treatment centers are in the business of saving and changing lives. You excel at helping others, but often not yourself. Why is that? We will answer that question and create a customized solution. Holistic healing is a vital foundation to be a whole person and live a contented, successful life. There is no simple answer, and as Einstein said, The mind that created the problem cannot solve the problem. This is a WE process. We can do together, what you can t do alone. Morning Break in the Exhibit Hall: 10:00 AM 10:30 AM Wednesday Closing Plenary: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM #410. A New Paradigm for Care Management that Promotes Long-Term Recovery Robert DuPont, MD e Level of Instruction: All The objective of treatment has long been to get addicts to stop using alcohol and drugs, based on the assumption that chemical slavery is caused by withdrawal. In this view, detoxification sets addicts free. This misunderstanding leads to a short-term focus that fails because addicts have often experienced periods of abstinence. The fundamental problem is not stopping use; it is relapse. Accept substance use and it continues; reject it and guide the addict to Recovery and there is hope of a better life. Abundant evidence for this approach comes from programs developed for addicted physicians, commercial pilots and attorneys. These unique systems of care management produce the best long-term outcomes in addiction and hold the promise of lifetime Recovery through the integration of the 12-Step programs. This New Paradigm has been adopted by innovative criminal justice programs and is being extended to substance abuse treatment programs, the next frontier. Who Should Attend? Physicians, Psychologists, Social Workers, Marriage and Family Therapists, Alcohol and Drug Counselors, Mental Health Counselors, Rehabilitation Counselors, Educators, Lawyers. Anyone whose life has been touched by the addictive process. 11
