What are we learning??

Audience Questions

What barriers have you encountered delivering or obtaining treatment for adolescent substance use?

What resources or supports are available to adolescents in recovery in your community?

Who are the key players we should be talking to (other than the ones in this room today)?

Community Conversation:Access to treatment

• Satellite sites out in communities

• Transportation

• Take the service to the child –home-based

• Utilize Telehealth more

• Quick response

Community Conversation: Teamwork—Who should be talking

• Legislators

• Parks & Recreation; other community non-profits

• Businesses (need skilled workers; clients need jobs and employment)

•MCO support (care delays and denials)

Individual CBT is consistently associated with greater sustained or increasing decrease in substance abuse than other evidence-based substance treatment interventions for adolescents (Tripodi et al 2010; Waldron et al., 2008).

Strengths of ENCOMPASS CBT

22

These procedures include:

• 3-day face-to-face training followed by weekly clinical supervision and fidelity/adherence monitoring.

• Randomly selected audio-recorded sessions from each therapist are reviewed, rated for fidelity/adherence and provided written and oral feedback by the Encompass MET/CBT supervisor

Strengths of ENCOMPASS CBT

• Encompass MET/CBT can be individually tailored for patients by selecting the modules (from a menu of modules) that are most clinically relevant for individual patients.

• Depression: negative mood states often trigger substance use. Focus on mood regulation skills.

• ADHD: focus on organizational skills, impulse control, anticipation and planning ahead for high risk situations.

Strengths of ENCOMPASS CBT

Thomas L. Sexton, Ph.D., ABPP and Astrid van Dam

Functional Family Therapy

• Comprehensive, family-focused, evidence-based model addressing co-occurring disorders

• Flexible & adaptive to fit clients across range of cultural contexts, clinic or in-home delivery, voluntary & court-ordered families

• Uses data to drive decisions & improve fidelity

FFT Core Principles

• Problems are embedded in multisystemic, relational risk and protective factors.

• Families are the primary focus of treatment and assessment.

• Obtainable Change Goals are family based.

• Alliance Based Motivation creates positive engagement and lasting change.

• Evidence based clinical decision making results in better community based outcomes.

Stages

Delivered weekly sessions in each treatment phase occur in a successful treatment episode

Engagement Motivation

Behavior Change

Generalization

• Fidelity is tracked with both of these models with individual and group review of cases and tapes of sessions and self monitoring and patient monitoring of progress.

• Also training the trainer for CBT.

Potential Indications/Populations

1. Patient release after emergency medical care involving opioid poisoning/intoxication

2. Suspected history of illicit or nonmedical opioid use

3. Any opioid prescription and … concurrent alcohol, benzodiazepine or SSRI prescription

Would discussing this with the family heighten safety measures with opiates?
