Breaking the Cycle: Understanding Personality Disorders and Inter-generational Trauma in the Treatment of Substance Use Disorders

 

Estimated watch time: 54 mins 

Available credits: none

Objectives and Summary:

Interactions with our caregivers and other experiences during childhood play a large role in shaping who we become. If these experiences are traumatic, a child can potentially develop mental health conditions such as a personality disorder later in life. In this presentation, Alex Ribbentrop, LCSW-QS, CFTP, provides an overview of the many factors that can contribute to personality disorders and other conditions.

After watching this presentation, the viewer will:

  • Understand the factors that contribute to personality disorders
  • Be aware of how the caregiver-child relationship affects development
  • Know more about coping mechanisms and how they relate to substance abuse
