Client Needs

Medications can help clients safely and comfortably withdraw from substances such as alcohol, opiates, or sedatives if they have a physical addiction. The medicines used will depend on the drug or drugs on which they are dependent. Medication-assisted treatment is the use of medications approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies, to provide a whole-client approach to the treatment of opioid, alcohol, or tobacco use disorders. The goals of this chapter are to learn about types of medication that aid recovery from a substance use disorder, to understand the reasons why some people may have problems with medication, to learn about withdrawal symptoms and medications that help, to understand the effects of drug and alcohol use on psychiatric medications, and to determine whether or not a client needs medication to help with his or her substance disorder.

Community Mental Health Clinics

Substance use disorders are frequently comorbid with mood, anxiety, and psychotic disorders, and they commonly present in tandem in both primary care and psychiatric settings. Unfortunately, in the past, individuals with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders would receive treatment in community mental health clinics only after their substance use disorder was “stabilized.” There has been increasing recognition that integrated treatment is necessary for these individuals to fully succeed and achieve recovery. This chapter uses a common presentation to illustrate up-to-date screening and treatment recommendations. Motivational interviewing, contingency management, cognitive–behavioral therapy, and medication-assisted treatment are explored. A discussion of the continuum of community-based services and systems challenges follows.
