Course Description
It can be despairing to watch someone in your care suffer from addiction. You may feel powerless and ask yourself, “Why even try?” But there is hope. Fuller Theological Seminary’s School of Psychology & Marriage and Family Therapy is a trailblazer in theologically and physiologically integrated addiction recovery support. We know the challenges Christian leaders like you face as you minister to those experiencing addiction. Under the guidance of addiction recovery experts and practitioners Dr. Miko Mechure and Dr. Christin Fort, this course offers practical information, tools, and recommendations for providing integrated addiction recovery support. By the end of this course, you will be able to articulate an understanding of the nature of addiction, identify appropriate levels of care to refer people to for treatment, and create a robust plan for a recovery ministry.
This course is the recommended sixth course in the Certificate of Emotional Health in Ministry.
