Learning Objectives

Participants will examine:

  • The Four-Quadrant model for understanding and describing various. combinations of co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders
  • The "Stages of Change" model (Prochasks, Norcross, & DiClemente, 1994) for better understanding how to match effective treatment to the state of readiness of the client.
  • The "Stages of Treatment" model for better measuring progress in the clients who are at less-than-action stages of change.
  • The principles of the "Comprehensive, Continuous Integrated System of Care" (Minkoff) model for transforming single-diagnosis treatment systems into effective dual diagnosis treatments systems.
  • The principles of the "Integrated Dual Disorders Treatment" model (SAMHSA's evidence-based practice) for building an effective treatment team to work with clients having both severe and persistent mental health disorders, as well as co-occurring substance use disorders--among the elements reviewed in the SAMHSA toolkit is the "Motivational Interviewing" approach (Miller & Rollnick, 2002).
  • How contemporary approaches to delivering treatment to dually disordered individuals are different from traditional approaches.
