Sovereign Health of Los Angeles Welcomes

Stephen Sideroff, Ph.D.

Presenting: "A Comprehensive Approach to Restoring Self-Regulation for Resilient Recovery"

The inability to self-regulate is a major cause of addiction. Stress is one of the most powerful triggers for relapse and is a source of dysregulation. This workshop will identify stress-related factors that create the neuropsychological conditions for addiction liability. To address this, Dr. Sideroff will present an innovative, new model of resilience that incorporates physical, emotional and mental healing and optimal functioning from his new book, “The Path: Mastering the Nine Pillars of Resilience and Success.” He will present a strong argument for a dedicated track within treatment and recovery for reestablishing the ability to self-regulate.
