HALT Check-In Card — Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired

The oldest relapse prevention tool in the field — finally in a format clients will actually use.

Every counselor teaches HALT. Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired. It's in every textbook, every group curriculum, every treatment center whiteboard. And most clients forget it the second they walk out your door.

This laminated wallet card puts HALT back where it belongs — in your client's pocket, not your filing cabinet.

CLINICAL APPLICATIONS:

✓ Relapse prevention planning — a physical tool clients carry, not just a concept they heard once

✓ Early recovery clients learning to identify triggers before they snowball

✓ Justice-involved clients who need to pause before reacting to a stressful PO call or court letter

✓ Clients with co-occurring mood disorders who struggle to differentiate emotional states from cravings

✓ Group therapy handout — teach it, practice it, send them home with something in their hand

✓ Aftercare planning — include it in discharge packets as a portable support tool

WHAT YOU GET:

• Set of 4 or Set of 10 wallet-sized cards
• Laminated for durability
• Credit card size — fits in wallet, badge holder, or pocket

PERFECT FOR:

✓ Addiction counselors and therapists

✓ Treatment centers, IOP, and outpatient programs

✓ Peer recovery support specialists

✓ Case managers building discharge packets 

✓ Any clinician who's tired of teaching HALT and watching it disappear by the next session

Designed by a licensed addiction counselor with 15+ years of clinical experience who has taught HALT more times than she can count — and finally made it stick.
