Section One:
Co-Occurring Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders in Adolescents: The Research |
|
|
Slide 4 :
|
INTRODUCTION
The research tells us the majority of youth referred for substance abuse treatment have at least one co-occurring mental health disorder (COD), a DSM-IV-TR mental health disorder and a substance use disorder (SUD). |
|
|
Slide 5 :
|
Research Adolescents with substance use disorders are at a six times risk of having a co-occurring psychiatric disorder (Dennis, 2004)
Co-Occurring disorders are associated with poorer treatment outcomes, both physical and psychological when either disorder is not treated (Riggs, 2003)
Drug abuse changes the brain chemistry of developing brains.
Psychiatric symptoms often precede the SUD
|
|
|
|
|
Slide 7 :
|
Incidence of Co-occurring Disorders in System of Care Adolescents (Turner, Muck, Muck et al, 2004)
SOC sites (N= 18, 290) 44% reported COD |
|
|
Slide 8 :
|
Co-Occurring Disorders at Intake: SOC |
|
|
Slide 9 :
|
Co-Occurring Disorders Categories Co-occurring disorders in adolescents are usually categorized into internalizing and externalizing disorders. These should be the treatment targets for the mental health interventions.
Internalizing –anxiety, fear, shyness, low self esteem, sadness, depression (6%) of COD
Externalizing—non compliance, aggression, attention problems, destructiveness, impulsivity, hyperactivity, and antisocial behavior (18-35%) -COD
Both (38-65%) COD |
|
|
Slide 10 :
|
Co-Occurring Disorders Categories
Disruptive disorders and mood disorders are associated with earlier onset of use of substances and increased substance use disorders
Internalizing disorders are associated with SUD and are an antecedent of the SUD.
Trauma/victimization in youth with SUD range from 25% for males to 75% of females (Kanner, 2004, Dennis, 2004) |
|
|
Slide 11 :
|
Average Scores of Child Behavioral and Emotional Problems* for children with Co-occurring substance use problems at Intake, 6 Months, and 12 Months Internalizing and Externalizing Scores: Internalizing: n=101; F(3,98)=1396, P<.001.
Externalizing: n=101; F(3,98)=1706, P<.001.
* Child behavioral and emotional problems were measured by the CBCL (Child Behavior Checklist). Clinical range for internalizing and externalizing scores is between 60 and 63, while
clinical range for the eight syndrome scales is between 67 and 70. |
|
|
Slide 12 :
|
Gender Differences Girls
Conduct disorder associated with SUD in both girls and boys, but girls with this combination had the highest CBCL scores for delinquency
Caregivers report more of both internalizing and externalizing problems among girls (83%) than boys (41%)
Girls are over represented in groups with poor outcomes |
|
|
Slide 13 :
|
Gender Differences Girls
Females had higher rates of Co-Occurring disorders and were more likely to have suffered physical/sexual abuse
Girls report significantly higher level of drug dependence vs abuse, (72% vs 43%) in boys
|
|
|
Slide 14 :
|
Gender Differences Boys
Present more often with disruptive behaviors (ODD/CD)
More often in juvenile justice settings (80%) with COD referrals
In juvenile justice settings 3/4 of males and half of all females have COD |
|
|
Slide 15 :
|
Section Two:
Systems Issues - Parallel Treatment Systems and Colliding Cultures |
|
|
Slide 16 :
|
Systems Issues – Treatment Pathways Different models in mental health and substance abuse treatment have resulted in the development of parallel but not intersecting treatment systems with different funding streams, mandates and treatment philosophy. |
|
|
Slide 17 :
|
Clinical Barriers Mental Health Treatment
The fundamental approach to clinical education has not changed appreciably since 1910 (ICM 2000). Substance use disorders often are not seen as part of the “care mandate.”
Medical model
Emphasis on licensure
Emphasis on minimal self disclosure.
Treatment can not begin until abstinence is obtained |
|
|
Slide 18 :
|
Clinical Barriers Mental Health Treatment cont.
Reluctance to medicate individuals with a substance use disorder
Psychological treatments offered but with no substance abuse treatment component
Clinicians are reluctant to treat substance abusing individuals
Clinicians often not cross trained in SUD
Individuals with SUD often minimize the disorder and vice-versa |
|
|
Slide 19 :
|
Clinical Barriers Substance Abuse Treatment
Knowledge of mental health disorders is often limited and often out of scope of practice of the providers.
Based on a peer relationship model
Licensure not necessary (changing)
Treatment provider often a recovering individual
Willing to disclose substance abuse history
Individual with substance abuse history treated as an expert valued.
Often reluctance to allow any medication of any kind
Treatment often ignores mental health problems and focuses on substance abuse
Providers not cross trained in mental health treatments |
|
|
Slide 20 :
|
Section Three:
Assessment of Co-Occurring Disorders |
|
|
Slide 21 :
|
Assessment and Screening for Co-Occurring Disorders
The process of screening, assessment, and treatment planning should be an integrated approach that addresses the substance abuse and mental health disorders, each in the context of the other and neither should be considered primary.
Expect comorbidity as it is higher than realized
Assess for trauma/victimization |
|
|
Slide 22 :
|
Assessment and Screening for Co-Occurring Disorders Substance use assessment should include:
Onset, progression, patterns of use, frequency, tolerance/withdrawal, triggers.
Assessment for patterns of use of multiple drugs
Consequences of drug usage
Motivation for treatment
Family history regarding substance use including extended family |
|
|
Slide 23 :
|
Assessment and Screening for Co-Occurring Disorders The assessment process ideally would include:
A brief screening assessment for substance use disorders as part of the standard mental health assessment at entry and throughout treatment
A full substance abuse disorder assessment for adolescents with more complicated/ Co-morbid disorders and identified SUD |
|
|

Recommendations |
|
|
Slide 85 :
|
Recommendations
It is clear that there are enormous mental health needs for adolescents with Co-Occurring Disorders.
|
|
|
Slide 86 :
|
Recommendations Assessment:
Comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment
Assess Mental Health Issues using standard mental health intake process/evaluation
Assess for SUD using a brief screening tool for substance use disorders in ALL adolescents entering system |
|
|
Slide 87 :
|
Recommendations Assessment:
Follow up with a comprehensive substance use disorder assessment for adolescents who have a co-morbid substance abuse disorder
Assess for trauma/victimization
Assess readiness for change
|
|
|
Slide 88 :
|
Recommendations Treatment:
Implement science based psychotherapies for co-occurring disorders into routine practice
Target most common co-morbidities ,i.e. Depression, ADHD, PTSD, CD
Target most common substances abused; marijuana alcohol/cigarettes |
|
|
Slide 89 :
|
Recommendations Treatment:
Conceptualize SUD as a process; waxes/wanes, relapse expectable. Unrealistic to expect total remission in all cases.
Medication has a place in treating co-morbid disorders, particularly the internalizing disorders
|
