This brief introductory workshop will focus on the most common online addictions such as pornography, gambling, gaming, social networking/chatting, compulsive shopping, and compulsive surfing, and will offer ways to assess, diagnose, and treat this issue.<o:p></o:p> Intended Audience:<o:p></o:p><ul type=disc><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1'>Mental health therapists<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1'>Chemical dependency counselors<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1'>Social workers<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1'>Psychologists<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1'>Church clergy<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1'>Graduate students enrolled in clinical programs<o:p></o:p></li></ul>  The Wellness Institute is an approved provider for CEU’s for Counselors and Social Workers by the CSWMFT Board (Provider #RCS031102).
