Motivational Interviewing for Edible THC

Many states have legalized the recreational use of THC flooding the market with products that are not regulated. Such products can look harmless and even considered to be marketed towards children. Coupled with the popular opinion that THC is a harmless drug, many clinicians are now having to treat clients living with Marijuana Use Disorder. This presentation will provide a discussion about the variance in substances found in edible products as well as identify how these products can be harmful for recreational use. Those attending this presentation will identify how to assess a client's readiness to change THC use. Participants will also identify how to apply Motivational Interviewing for those living with Marijuana Use Disorder.

  • Participants will identify the harmful effects associated with the use of edible marijuana.
  • Participants will identify appropriate stages of change for those considering changing their marijuana use.
  • Participants will identify how to apply motivational interviewing for clients living with marijuana use disorder.
