This powerpoint is part of AllCEU's Addiction Counselor Training Series. Part of the screening process involves not only identifying a possible problem, but helping the patient to identify it as a problem that they are willing to work on. Part of this process of motivational enhancement includes helping patients see there is an issue, that it is controllable or able to be dealt with and how it will help them achieve their goals. This powerpoint links to protocols for helping train clinicians in Motivational Enhancement Therapy. Each week we provide 8 hours of face-to-face continuing education and precertification training to LPCs, LADCs, and those wishing to become addiction counselors. Many states allow precertification to be done via online learning as well. We are approved education providers by NAADAC #599 and NBCC #6261

This document discusses motivational interviewing, a counseling approach used to facilitate health behavior change. It provides an overview of the historical development and theoretical underpinnings of motivational interviewing. Key principles of motivational interviewing include expressing empathy, developing discrepancy, rolling with resistance, and avoiding arguing with clients. Specific techniques discussed include reflective listening, open-ended questions, affirming client strengths, and developing awareness of risks and benefits of behavior change.
Brief intervention can range from 5 minutes to 2 hours and involves an informal assessment of the client's situation, thoughts, and developing a strategy for change. It is based on harm minimization principles and can be used to discuss personal health, substance use, mental health issues, and their effects on family. The most important factor is developing a relationship with the client. Brief intervention may not be appropriate if the client is resistant, intoxicated, unwell, or has complex chronic issues. In those cases, referral or postponing may be necessary. Brief intervention can help clients develop a sense of power, identity, purpose, self-acceptance, and management of social issues.

This document provides an overview of a practice inquiry model for continuing medical education (CME) for family medicine physicians. It discusses using practice inquiry sessions to help physicians work through dilemmas with patients where they may feel stuck. It encourages reflection on real patient cases and leveraging the group's clinical experiences and evidence to clarify agreements and improve patient-physician relationships. Facilitators guide the discussion with questions to help participants think more deeply about issues. Outcomes of the sessions must be documented for CME compliance but can be documented in various ways such as notes or post-session questionnaires, not just photographs. The goal is to help physicians address challenges in their practice.
Counselling involves a trained professional helping a client address difficulties through establishing a relationship, assessing problems, setting goals, providing interventions, and evaluating progress. There are various types of counselling depending on the issue, including mental health counselling, substance abuse counselling, career counselling, marriage counselling, rehabilitation counselling, and spiritual counselling. The counselling process typically involves building trust, understanding the problem, creating a plan to address it, taking action, and determining when counselling is no longer needed.
Counseling involves a direct conversation between two people to help an employee improve performance rather than humiliate them. It outlines actions for subordinates to achieve goals and growth with a counselor's assistance. Counseling establishes a constructive relationship to openly discuss problems and determine causes of poor performance to identify improvements. Counselors can be internal or external to the organization. The counseling process involves discussing issues, developing plans, implementation, and follow-up to assess progress. It benefits those being counseled by allowing understanding of themselves and situations to find alternative solutions.
Behavior modification uses principles of conditioning to understand and change human behavior. Key concepts include reinforcement, punishment, extinction bursts, and shaping behaviors through successive approximations. Understanding factors that reward and discourage behaviors can help address client issues and improve coping. Behavior modification provides a framework for conceptualizing problems and designing interventions, but should consider cognitive interpretations to empower clients.

The document outlines the typical stages of counseling: immediate concerns, early stage, middle stage, late stage, and termination. The immediate concerns stage focuses on risk assessment, rapport building, and preliminary diagnosis. The early stage emphasizes in-depth assessment, goal-setting, and treatment planning. Key tasks in the middle stage include working towards goals, strengthening coping skills, and addressing underlying issues. The late stage helps clients understand root causes and apply skills to future problems. Termination addresses progress, consolidation of gains, and feelings around ending counseling.
This document provides an overview of several common counseling theories and related interventions:
1) Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on modifying unhelpful thoughts to change emotional and behavioral responses. Interventions include monitoring thoughts and behaviors, identifying cognitive distortions, and developing alternative perspectives.
2) Behavioral theories emphasize observable behaviors and their environmental triggers. Therapies aim to reduce problematic behaviors through techniques like exposure therapy, reinforcement of positive behaviors, and contingency contracts.
3) Humanistic approaches view people as inherently capable of growth when provided an authentic relationship with unconditional positive regard. Person-centered therapy and Gestalt therapy focus on helping clients achieve self-congruence and meet needs in the present moment.

A success mindset turns obstacles into challenges, focuses on successes over failures, and increases empowerment and motivation. Developing compassion involves accepting imperfections and viewing success in the present context. Managing stress reduces anxiety so clients have more energy for success. Positive visualization defines what a happy, successful life looks like to stay focused on goals. The overall goal is for clients to maintain a success orientation to empower themselves and continue progressing toward what is important to them.

Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.

different rates.
It is not uncommon for people to linger in the early stages.
Recurrence of at least some symptoms or old behaviors is a
normal event, and many clients cycle through the different
stages several times before achieving stable recovery.

Often there is a relatively short period of time to make a
beneficial impact on the client
The average length of stay in substance abuse treatment is
very short
If clinicians do not make an impact in the first session or
two with clients, they may not be able to make an impact
at all
Make the best use of the first contact
It is usually a mistake to start a session with filling out
forms
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Webinars $3 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149 30
31. Summary
Even one session can make a positive impact on a client
Lasting change takes time and effort
All clients have the ability to make positive choices and changes
Clients will be at different stages of readiness for change for
different issues and symptoms and may vacillate between
conflicting goals

apathetic
Sometimes enhancing motivation means focusing first on barriers to
recovery instead of the problem itself.
Explore expectations regarding recovery to enhance motivation
Develop a relapse prevention plan that helps clients identify
triggers and vulnerabilities and ways to prevent and address them
