Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention for Addictive Behavior

September 30, 2026 |12-1pm PT

Presenters: Neharika Chawla, PhD, Joel Grow, PhD, and Erinn McGraw, BFA 

Mindfulness-based approaches to the treatment of addictive behavior invite greater awareness of triggers, cravings, habitual patterns, and automatic reactions. This cultivates the capacity to pause, observe present-moment experience with openness and curiosity, and respond with greater flexibility and choice.

This workshop will introduce participants to the core practices and exercises that illustrate the intentions and foundations of Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP). Throughout the workshop, participants will explore how mindfulness can help clients relate differently to difficult thoughts, emotions, and urges, supporting recovery and reducing vulnerability to relapse.

Participants will leave with a foundational understanding of MBRP principles and direct experience with several core practices. Attendees will also learn about a new online MBRP course developed by the presenters on behalf of the Northwest ATTC.

Certificate of attendance available to all participants of the live session!
