Torah Psychology School of Coaching & Counseling
Viktor Frankl Addiction Recovery
Life Coaching Program
(Drugs, Alcohol, Internet, Food)
Starting March 19
Would you like to become an Addiction Recovery Life Coach helping others overcome their addictions?
Do you know a loved one or someone who struggles with Alcohol, Drugs, Internet, Sex and Food addictions?
Do you want to change the lives of your family/community members using a Torah approach inspired by Viktor Frankl, Holocaust survivor and author of Man's Search for Meaning?
While a therapist might diagnose addictive behavior and prescribe treatment, this is not the coach’s focus. Instead, a coach will offer someone the tools and guidance needed to follow the path they’ve already chosen. This will include learning how to:
-
Spot the signs of drugs/alcohol/Internet, sexual and food addictions
-
Offer guidance in developing new behavior patterns
-
Create an effective plan of action
-
Reduce resistance to change
-
Direct that person to the right medical/group/therapeutic resources
-
Utilize the teachings of Rabbi Dr. Avraham Twerski, z”l
The 15-week online program led by Rabbi Daniel Schonbuch, LMFT, includes special guest speakers including:
-
Dr. Judith Grisel, former addict and author of “Never Enough: The Neuroscience and Experience of Addiction
-
Lew Abrams, LCSW - Expert on Addiction in the Orthodox world
-
Dominique Simon-Levine, PhD, Director, Alliesinrecovery.net
