Substance use isn't something that requires us to have a higher level of education. There is a level of substance use work that is a specialty that is on the more severe end, where we would refer anyway.
Ever thought substance use work was out of your reach without a special certification? Think again. In this eye-opening episode of 'All Things Substance', Betsy Byler tackles the widespread myth that only certified specialists can handle substance use cases. Drawing on her vast experience as a licensed therapist and substance abuse counselor, Betsy demystifies the process and explains how any therapist can incorporate substance use treatment into their practice, even without a master's degree.
She takes listeners through the various levels of education and training available, making it clear that you don't need to be a specialist to make a difference in this field. With her signature blend of empathy and practicality, Betsy offers a roadmap for therapists looking to broaden their scope and better serve their clients.
Whether you're new to the field or a seasoned professional, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable steps to help you confidently address substance use in your practice.
