About This Course

The Transtheoretical Model (TTM), seems to be the standard and is commonly used by most organizations and facilities. The TTM model focuses on the decision-making of the individual and is a model of intentional change, as well as, operates on the assumption that people do not change behaviors quickly and decisively. Rather than focus solely on the TTM model, Holistic and Sustainable Change, highlights the effective impact that lived experience, proper use of self-disclosure and various treatment modalities and intervention can have on implementing lasting change. In addition, this course highlights the significance of emotional intelligence in adjusting treatment approaches, styles and techniques to meet changing individual and treatment needs. Intentional, holistic change needs to be flexible, individualized, and organic, which allows individuals to move through a sustained person-centered change process as needed.

Learning Objectives: 

  1. To utilize self-disclosure in an appropriate, professional manner.
  2. To utilize Emotional Intelligence (EQ) as an empowerment tool.
  3. To progress through the effective, lasting change, people apply cognitive, affective, and evaluative processes.
