Recovery Atom: Exploring Relationships Towards Sustainable Recovery

DESCRIPTION

In order to get and stay sober, clients need to navigate the People, Places, and Things that are likely to trigger a relapse. But avoiding triggers is not enough. Clients also need to identify supportive resources. The Recovery Support Atom provides a way for clients to map out their relationship world. Based on Moreno’s Social Atom, it helps clients uncover and/or discover who is supportive of their recovery and who are negative influence. It also provides an assessment of where clients are at in their recovery process. In this experiential workshop, we will demonstrate how to use the Recovery Support Atom, both on paper and in action, to help clients identify which relationships to hold on to, which might need changing and which ones to let go of in order to achieve sustainable recovery. Though focused on addiction, the Recovery Support Atom can be helpful for clients striving to make any sort of change. 


OBJECTIVES
 
Participants will be able to:
  • Participants will learn the importance of mapping out clients’ relationships as both a method of assessment and as a tool to help clients get and stay sober
  • Demonstrate how to create a Recovery Support Atom using pencil and paper.
  • Describe how to put the Recovery Support Atom into action.
  • Describe at least two Psychodramatic techniques
