As Mental Health Professionals we find reliable information on
de-addiction therapy—separating fact from fiction . With over 12,000 books
and 150,000 articles and research reports have been published. Without
exception, developers and devotees to particular methods claim superiority in
conceptualization and outcome of their chosen approach.
Therefore this workshop aims to identify core factors responsible for
therapeutic success regardless of theoretical orientation or psychiatric
diagnosis. Neil Paul has above 20 years of research, knowledge and
understanding translated into practical, common sense, and empirically-
supported therapeutic skills that can be used for the efficient and effective
resolution of problems clients bring to treatment. Brief details on all topics are
given below.

Chapter 1 Overview of Addiction and Treatment
We examine the process of addiction, progress from experimental and social use
to dependency and recovery for many who receive appropriate treatment
interventions. Recovery means a chance to return to productive roles in society.
This chapter is intended as a general overview to assist the pharmacologic,
psychoactive, and somatic consequences of drugs abused significantly alcohol;
marijuana; cocaine; inhalants; stimulants; hallucinogens; opiates; tranquilizers.
This chapter also takes a look at the issues, emphasizing a need to treat the
substance abuser as a means of protecting the innocent as Alcohol and other
drugs (AOD) has led to a greatly increased crime rate; increased communicable
diseases, mental illnesses and many more.

Chapter 2 Modalities for treatment & Screening, Assessment The effects of various substances of abuse produce different symptoms and
needs among users. Two broad categories of treatment programs are
biologically based, or behaviorally /psychosocially based or a combination of
both including: residential or inpatient treatment programs or outpatient
treatment. A comprehensive appraisal of the individual's alcohol or drug
problem, and how it affects health and functioning, is vital for selecting
treatment resources that best meet the needs.
Chapter 3- Working with special populations & unmotivated difficult clients
Here we discuss information about several population groups of special concern in
the treatment of substance abuse, They include Medically ill populations, Infectious
diseases, Developmentally disabled persons, Elderly persons, Women, Children
Also this chapter gives a perspective of substance abuse Interventions;
with the motivational theory behind Interventions; also explaining the different
models of Intervention. The basic idea behind any intervention is a desire by family,
friends, colleagues, neighbors, employers, etc. to take an active role in assisting
another person to change unacceptable behavior.

Chapter 4- Relapse Prevention Relapse prevention methodologies are critical to the success of substance abuse
treatment. This chapter will examine the process of relapse, along with
information about recognizing its "warning signs," or triggers, and the elements
of relapse prevention treatment methodologies.
Relapse does not occur within a vacuum. There are many contributing factors,
as well as identifiable evidence and warning signs which indicate that a patient
may be in danger of returning to substance abuse. Relapse can be understood
as not only the actual return to the pattern of substance abuse, but also as the
process during which indicators appear prior to the patient's resumption of
substance use (Daley, 1987).
