Join Skyland Trail for this month’s Lunch-and-Learn in the Dorothy C. Fuqua Training Center, August 20th at 11AM, featuring Michael E. Walsh, MS, CAP, BRI I, director of Admissions & Business Development for the Hanley Center in West Palm Beach.
This month’s topic is “Real Men Do Cry: Age Specific Intervention and Treatment Approaches for Baby Boomers and Older Adults.” Walsh’s presentation will enable participants to be able to: review a complex Boomer addiction profile and challenges for health care and treatment; explore how men’s issues in midlife and beyond affect risk and protector factors and how related therapies can engage the individual in treatment. It will also review the inter-relationship of barriers to men’s recovery and how new research is identifying effective treatment interventions and relapse prevention.
As Director of Admissions and Business Development at Hanley Center since 2008, Walsh’s goal is to provide excellence and consistency in a seamless continuum of care. He has lectured nationally and internationally, and is a member of professional organizations including NAADAC, NAATP, and the Association of Intervention Specialists. A graduate of Boston College, he received a Masters degree in Substance Abuse Counseling from Nova Southeastern University, and is a Board Registered Interventionist and is CAP-certified.
The fee for this Lunch-and-Learn is $20. Mental health professionals receive continuing education credits for attending the event. Check back for updates at Skyland Trail.
