On March 25, Dr. Jerry Boriskin gave a marvelous presentation titled “Complex PTSD and Co-occurring Addictive Disorders: Demystifying Demons and Developing Multidimensional Treatment Skills.”

An expert in the field of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD, Dr. Boriskin has garnered the support of a large group of professionals who gathered on a cold Chicago day to hear him speak. Providing an intense look at the complexity of treating PTSD and co-occurring addictions, Dr. Boriskin shared a documentary on a military case subject. Visibly moved, attendees gained a new appreciation for our military personnel.

The group then employed “group thinking” to come up with clinical solutions to a particularly challenging case. The results were varied and fascinating.

The day was a tremendous learning opportunity; most remarkable was Dr. Boriskin’s evident passion for his field.
