Carla Kmett Danielson PhD
Medical University of South Caolina
The document discusses violence risk assessment. It notes that both static (historical) and dynamic (clinical) risk factors should be considered. The most robust risk factors for violence are substance abuse, prior acts of violence, and psychopathy. Well-known risk assessment tools mentioned include the HCR-20 and PCL-R. The goals of risk assessment are described as improved decision making, reduced recidivism, and increased community safety.

Behavioral therapy in post traumatic stress disorder by dr. santoshSantosh Srivastava
This document summarizes behavioral therapy approaches for treating substance abuse. It discusses contemporary treatment approaches including 12-step programs, inpatient and outpatient treatment, therapeutic communities, and pharmacological and psychological therapies. It specifically focuses on behavior therapy techniques like aversion therapy, cue exposure, skills training, contingency management, and cognitive-behavioral therapy including relapse prevention and coping skills training. The document also discusses models of addiction like Brickman's model of helping and coping as well as biopsychosocial factors in addiction development and maintenance. It analyzes high-risk situations for relapse and provides a cognitive behavioral model of the relapse process along with specific relapse prevention strategies.
When children and teens present with behaviour and emotional problems the lure of a quick fix is
understandable and drugs present a ready-made solution. Therapists are often hesitant to talk about
medication and defer to medical professionals. In this paper DUNCAN, SPARKS, MURPHY and MILLER
highlight the explosion in the use of psychotropic medications for children and teens. This trend flies in the
face of the American Psychological Association’s recommendation of the use of psychosocial interventions
as the first intervention of choice with children and teens. The reliability and validity of psychiatric diagnoses is
questioned, in particular against a background of fluctuations in child development and social adaptations,
and a compelling critique is provided of the current research findings on the effectiveness of psychotropic
medications including antidepressants and ADHD medications. Therapists are urged to shed their timidity
and discuss openly the risks and benefits of medication with the knowledge that there is empirical support
for psychosocial interventions as a first line approach. Recommendations are offered to engage clients as
central partners in developing solutions—medical or non-medical—that fit each child and each situation.
This is the validation study of the Group Session Rating Scale (GSRS). In a nutshell, this study found more than acceptable reliability and validity with not only an alliance measure but also with group climate and cohesiveness scales. The GSRS was also predictive of last session outcomes. An RCT comparing PCOMS to TAU in group therapy has been submitted.

Personality-targeted Interventions for Building Resilience against Substance Use and Mental Health Problems among Adolescents Involved in Child Welfare System
Hanie Edalati, Patricia Conrod
This document summarizes a presentation on the evidence base for opioid addiction treatment and the ASAM Criteria. It discusses how the ASAM Criteria provide a standardized system for determining the appropriate level of care for patients based on six dimensions. Studies show the ASAM Criteria have predictive and concurrent validity in placing patients into the appropriate level of care and predicting outcomes like treatment completion and substance use. The ASAM Criteria are also widely used in the US with over half of treatment programs reporting their use.
The Norway Couple Project: Lessons LearnedBarry Duncan
The document discusses lessons learned from studies on using client feedback to improve outcomes in couple therapy. A large randomized clinical trial in Norway found that routinely collecting and discussing client feedback on progress and the therapeutic alliance using brief measures led to better outcomes compared to treatment as usual. Specifically, couples receiving feedback showed greater improvement in their relationships and were less likely to deteriorate over time. The findings suggest incorporating systematic client feedback into routine practice can help therapists improve outcomes for couples across different therapy approaches.

This document discusses different methods of data collection, including self-reports, observations, and biophysiologic measures. Self-reports involve participants responding to researcher questions through methods like questionnaires and interviews. Observations involve directly observing participant behaviors and characteristics. Biophysiologic measures assess clinical variables. Each method has advantages, like the amount of data self-reports can provide, but also disadvantages, such as potential biases in self-reports. The document provides details on developing and administering various self-report instruments.

This study examined the relationship between risk of future crime/violence and mental health status/co-occurring disorders in 2,077 probationers in Tarrant County, Texas. Screening tools assessed substance use, mental health disorders, and risk levels. Probationers with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders had significantly higher risk of future crime than those with only one disorder or no disorders. Treating both substance use and mental health issues is important for reducing recidivism in this population.

Prior research in this population suggests that, overall, opiate and non-opiate addicted users have different issues and ought to be treated differently for their addiction—and that young and older adult opiate users present at treatment with different issues. This study investigated what significant differences in treatment motivation, length and outcome, if any, exist between opiate and non-opiate users and further investigates young adult (18-25 years of age) and older adult (26 and older) opiate users and the impact of any differences. Data for this study was drawn from 1972 individuals who entered voluntary, private, residential drug treatment and rehab. Study measures included the Addiction Severity Index (ASI), the Treatment Service Review (TSR), and the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment (URICA). Interviews were conducted at program intake and six-months post-discharge. Implications for addiction treatment providers and planners are discussed.

Abstract
Aims
The comorbidity of mental disorders and substance dependence is well-documented, but prospective investigations in community samples are rare. This investigation examines the role of primary mental disorders as risk factors for the later onset of nicotine, alcohol and illicit drug use, abuse, and dependence with abuse.
Design
The NCS was a nationally representative survey of mental and substance disorders in the US carried out in 1990 1992. The NCS-2 re-interviewed a probability sub-sample of NCS respondents in 2001-2 ...
This document discusses group intervention for substance use disorders. It covers characteristics of individuals with SUDs, factors that influence group interventions, mutual self-help groups like 12-step programs, the role of social workers, and integrating therapeutic treatment with mutual self-help groups. Research shows that attending groups like AA during and after treatment can improve outcomes compared to not attending. Social reinforcement of group attendance also predicts continued abstinence. Integrating 12-step principles and mutual aid groups can provide clients with ongoing peer support.

The Partners for Change Outcome Management System: Duncan & Reese, 2015Barry Duncan
Despite overall psychotherapy efficacy (Lambert, 2013), many clients do not benefit (Reese, Duncan, Bohanske, Owen, & Minami, 2014), dropouts are a problem (Swift & Greenberg, 2012), and therapists vary significantly in success rates (Baldwin & Imel, 2013), are poor judges of negative outcomes (Chapman et al., 2012), and grossly overestimate their effectiveness (Walfish, McAlister, O'Donnell, & Lambert, 2012). Systematic client feedback offers one solution (Duncan, 2014). Several feedback systems have emerged (Castonguay, Barkham, Lutz, & McAleavey, 2013), but only two have randomized clinical trial support and are included in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration’s National Registry of Evidence based Programs and Practices: The Outcome Questionnaire-45.2 System (Lambert, 2010) and the Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS; Duncan, 2012). This article presents the current status of the Partners for Change Outcome Management System, the psychometrics of the PCOMS measures, its empirical support, and its clinical and training applications. Future directions and implications of PCOMS research, training, and practice are detailed. Finally, we propose that systematic feedback offers a way, via large scale data collection, to re-prioritize what matters to psychotherapy outcome, reclaim our empirically validated core values and identity, and change the conversation from a medical model dominated discourse to a more scientific, relational perspective.
This document discusses patient-centered care and behavioral medicine in primary care. It covers several key points:
- Understanding diverse patient populations and how they perceive health and illness. This includes taking cultural factors like race, gender, socioeconomic status and health literacy into consideration.
- Developing skills like effective communication, providing culturally-sensitive assessments and interventions, and addressing barriers to patient adherence.
- Common factors that influence medication adherence such as health system challenges, patient health conditions and literacy, complexity of treatment regimens, and social/economic issues. Limited health literacy is strongly associated with lower levels of medication adherence and health knowledge.
- Strategies providers can use to improve adherence, including assessing literacy levels
This document summarizes a study examining the mental health needs of Latino older adults. The study used surveys and focus groups of 121 Latino older adults to understand barriers to mental health services, satisfaction with services, and preferences for treatment. Key findings included high satisfaction with traditional and non-traditional services but significant barriers like language difficulties, lack of provider cultural competence, and lack of transportation or health insurance. The study provides guidance for developing more accessible and culturally-appropriate mental health programs for this population.
ADHD medication and substance related problemsHasan Ismail
This study used a large U.S. health claims database to examine the association between ADHD medication treatment and substance-related problems. The results showed that: 1) ADHD patients were more likely to experience substance issues than controls, but medication reduced this risk; 2) Patients had lower odds of substance problems during months taking medication; and 3) Male patients on long-term medication had lower substance risk, though benefits were less clear for females. The study provides evidence that ADHD medication does not increase, and may decrease, risks of substance problems.

1) The document discusses analyzing health-related risks by considering social determinants of health like age, gender, ethnicity, and environment when building a patient's health history.
2) It focuses on the case of an adolescent Hispanic/Latino boy living in a middle-class suburb and how communication techniques should be tailored to effectively interview this patient.
3) Key factors like the patient's age, ethnicity, and environment are examined to understand potential health risks and inform targeted questions using the HEEADSS risk assessment tool.
This document discusses the importance of clinical assessment in developing treatment plans for addiction. It outlines the goals of a clinical needs assessment, including providing diagnoses, identifying life issues, co-occurring disorders, and barriers to treatment. It describes tools like the Addiction Severity Index that evaluate severity and monitor change. Case formulation approaches like cognitive-behavioral models are mentioned. The document stresses using assessment to prioritize problems and tailor treatment based on a patient's needs.

Abstract
Objective: The feasibility and acceptability of CHOICES-TEEN—a three-session intervention to reduce overlapping risks of
alcohol-exposed pregnancy (AEP), tobacco-exposed pregnancy (TEP), and HIV—was assessed among females in the juvenile
justice system. Method: Females aged 14–17 years on community probation in Houston, TX, were eligible if presenting with
aforementioned health risks. Outcome measures—obtained at 1- and 3-months postbaseline—included the Timeline Followback,
Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8, session completion/checklists, Working Alliance Inventory–Short, and open-ended ques-
tions. Twenty-two participants enrolled (82% Hispanic/Latina; mean age ¼ 16). Results: The results suggest strong acceptability
and feasibility with high client satisfaction and client/therapist ratings, 91% session completion, and positive open-ended
responses. All youth were at risk at baseline, with the following proportions at reduced risk at follow-up: AEP (90% at
1 month, 71.4% at 3 months), TEP (77% of smokers [n ¼ 17] at reduced risk at 1 month, 50% at 3 months), and HIV (52.4% at
1 month, 28.6% at 3 months).

This document discusses improving how non-drug technologies are appraised in Ontario by revising the decision-making framework. It summarizes work done by various committees and working groups since 2007 to operationalize ethics and social values in the appraisal process. This includes identifying core social values, developing evaluative questions related to equity, patient-centered care and other domains, and proposing a methodology for systematic, evidence-based analysis of ethics and social values issues. The goal is to fully integrate such analyses into the technology appraisal process to make recommendations more responsive to patient and societal considerations.

PCOMS and an Acute Care Inpatient Unit: Quality Improvement and Reduced Readm...Barry Duncan
High psychiatric readmission rates continue while evidence suggests that care is not perceived by patients as “patient centered.” Research has focused on aftercare strategies with little attention to the inpatient treatment itself as an intervention to reduce readmission rates. Quality improvement strategies based on patient-centered care may offer an alternative. We evaluated outcomes and readmission rates using a benchmarking methodology with a naturalistic data set from an inpatient psychiatric facility (N 2,247) that used a quality-improvement strategy called systematic patient feedback. A systematic patient feedback system, the Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS), was used. Overall pre-post effect sizes were d 1.33 and d 1.38 for patients diagnosed with a mood
disorder. These effect sizes were statistically equivalent to RCT benchmarks for feedback and depression.
Readmission rates were 6.1% (30 days), 9.5% (60 days), and 16.4% (180 days), all lower than national benchmarks. We also found that patients who achieved clinically significant treatment outcomes were less likely to be readmitted. We tentatively suggest that a focus on real-time patient outcomes as well as care that is “patient centered” may provide lower readmission rates.
PCOMS: A Viable Quality Improvement Strategy for Public Behavioral HealthBarry Duncan
This is the latest from the research team of the Heart and Soul of Change Project, published in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology. This study demonstrated that PCOMS is not only a viable quality improvement strategy but also that services to the poor and disenfranchised provided in a public behavioral setting, contrary to earlier research, can be as effective as those delivered in randomized clinical trials.
Integrating technology into mental health and addiction treatment can help overcome barriers to access. E-health programs like SHADE and iTreAD provide online cognitive behavioral therapy to treat comorbid depression and substance use through modules addressing behaviors, thoughts, cravings and relapse prevention. While some populations may be wary of e-health due to concerns about trust, privacy and impersonal nature, studies found no differences in alliance, satisfaction or outcomes between online and in-person CBT. With proper promotion and transparency about program development, e-health can effectively expand treatment access for comorbid disorders.
