Maybe you or a loved one are suffering from substance abuse and related problems. You’ve wanted to stop, but can’t. You could end up in trouble with the law.
With BEMT drug court professionals can offer a comprehensive and personalized CBT, VAK-TOTE approach to treatment that meets the unique needs of each client.
This will lower recidivism and the cost of treatment.
Compliance until graduation from drug court is not really success for drug courts or the judicial system. Yes. The client was successful and got out of the program. Graduated.
But how does that lend itself to “long-term recovery”?
Why is this important? As Beck and Milkman say, “There will be no long-term behavior changes unless you change permission-granting core beliefs first.” No B, Therefore, No A. No behavior change, therefore, no belief change.
Drug court case managers and treatment providers need to know how to elicit and change the criminal, permission-granting beliefs involving alcohol and other drugs.
Otherwise, it’s like they say in AA. “If nothing changes, nothing changes.”
Having adopted a CBT or DBT program is one thing. Actually, doing CBT and DBT is totally another. Drug courts must walk the walk too.
If you don’t show clients how to collapse criminal, permission-granting beliefs they will be recidivists.
Teach them how to desist. Desistance is the goal. That’s how you lower recidivism rates and the cost of treatment and crime.
Now – we all know the power of the mind-body connection. Add alcohol, drugs, CTC, mental health issues and pain, then you have a treatment challenge.
MAT is useful. No doubt. Some clients will use the system to get drugs while malingering. Is it better to wean clients in favor of a better treatment?
That’s what Belief Eye Movement Therapy is all about.
Here’s an example of using BEMT and the VAK-TOTE approach.
“The Therapy was successful the first try. I know you may be thinking this is impossible but I am living proof. My intestines are no longer running my life, limiting it as I should say.
I am now off all medications, and I have been able to return to work. My daily activities are no longer limited as they were for the last 11 years. I HIGHLY recommend this Therapy with Stan Dokmanus. I am fortunate to be relieved of my pain and limitations and begin functioning fully in my life! I am sincerely grateful to Stan for his work. This is all possible because of him.
Sincerely,”
