References Page 1 Medications to Treat Opioid Use Disorder Research Report Discusses effective medications used to treat opioid use disorders: methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. Overview An estimated 1.4 million people in the United States had a substance use disorder related to prescription opioids in 2019.1 However, only a fraction of people with prescription opioid use disorders receive tailored treatment (22 percent in 2019).1 Overdose deaths involving prescription opioids more than quadrupled from 1999 through 2016 followed by significant declines reported in both 2018 and 2019.2,3 Besides overdose, consequences of the opioid crisis include a rising incidence of infants born dependent on opioids because their mothers used these substances during pregnancy4,5 and increased spread of infectious diseases, including HIV and hepatitis C (HCV), as was seen in 2015 in southern Indiana.6 Effective prevention and treatment strategies exist for opioid misuse and use disorder but are highly underutilized across the United States.

  • Styles of Secular Recovery
    White, W. & Nicolaus, M. (2005). Styles of secular recovery. Counselor, 6(4), 58-61. Styles of Secular Recovery William L. White and Martin Nicolaus The last essay in this column noted the growing diversity in religious, spiritual and secular frameworks of recovery and sketched the history of religious approaches to addiction recovery. This essay reviews the history and growing varieties of secular recovery and the implications of such diversity for the addictions professional. A History of Secular Recovery The history of non-religious, non-spiritual approaches to the resolution of alcohol and other drug problems begins with the Washingtonian Revival of the 1840s. The Washingtonians removed preachers and physicians from the temperance lectern in favor of men and women who, in the vernacular of the day, were “reformed” or were “reforming.” The Washingtonians replaced religious admonitions not to drink with 1) public confession of one’s addiction, 2) a signed pledge of abstinence, 3) visits to younger members, 4) economic assistance to new members, 5) experience sharing meetings, 6) outreach to the suffering drunkard, and 7) sober entertainment and fellowship. While many Washingtonians entered the life of their local churches, Washingtonian leaders were charged by their religious critics with committing the sin of humanism--placing their own will above the power of God. Recovery support societies that followed the Washingtonians took on a more religious orientation, but secular recovery groups continued in some of the mid- century moderation societies, ribbon reform clubs and support societies that grew out of early treatment institutions, e.g. the Ollapod Club and the Keeley Leagues.

  • Group Composition and Its Impact on Effective Group Treatment of HIV and AIDS Patients
    Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, Vol. 7, No. 4, 1995 Group Composition and Its Impact on Effective Group Treatment of HIV and AIDS Patients Margaret J. Siebert 1 and William I. Dorfman 1 This paper reviews the literature on group therapy in the treatment of people with the Human Immunodeficiency l,qrus (HIIO and people with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Specifically, it examines the effect of group composition on the curative factors of group therapy. The variables of group composition explored are stage of illness, risk group for contracting HII~, and gender. This paper suggests that support groups that are homogeneous for stage of illness, risk behaviors, and gender provide members with the greatest benefits through facilitating the curative factors of group therapy: instillation of hope, universality, and group cohesion. KEY WORDS: groups; support; HIV. INTRODUCTION Studies have found that people who test positive for the Human Im- munodeficiency Virus (HIV) are likely to react with an increase in feelings of anxiety and depression (Tross and Hirsch, 1988). Many people have looked to the mental health system for help in dealing with their reactions to their HIV-positive status. Several studies have revealed that people who test positive for HIV, and people with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syn- drome (AIDS) have an interest in support groups and psychotherapy for help in coping with their diagnosis and the sequelae of AIDS (Child and Getzel, 1989; Donlou and Wolcott, 1985, as cited in Fawzy et aL, 1991; Wolcott et aL, 1986). Group therapy is the approach utilized most frequently by mental health workers to assist people in dealing with the emotional consequences 1Nova Southeastern University, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33314.

  • Rapid Review Response: the Use of Facilitated Peer Support Group Model for People Living with HIV Question 1) What Are the Benef
    Rapid Review Response: The Use of Facilitated Peer Support Group Model for People Living with HIV Question 1) What are the benefits of group interventions for persons living with HIV/AIDS (PHAs), and 2) What are best practices in administering group intervention programming for PHAs? The Issue and Why It’s Important Therapeutic interventions utilizing group dynamics have evolved from basic “group therapy” (guided by a therapist and attended by several clients), to complex group interventions tailored to therapeutic needs and contextual factors (e.g., inpatient vs. outpatient, homogeneous vs. heterogeneous groups, and short vs. long term) (see Appendix 1 for a figure that outlines factors in group dynamics) (1). In the domain of health, group interventions have become increasingly popular for supporting persons affected by illness (2). In their special report series for the “International Journal of Group Psychotherapy” Sherman et al (2004) identify the following benefits of group interventions drawn from the literature: • They serve as forums for peer support, providing a sense of universalism or shared experience, and an opportunity to learn from others facing similar challenges; • Participants may derive hope by witnessing others face the challenge of illness with resourcefulness, experience renewed self-worth by helping others who are faring more poorly than they are (e.g., via downward and upward social comparison processes; • Peer support and modeling also may contribute to new coping resources and self-efficacy, perhaps more effectively than is possible in individual therapy. • Moreover, groups are often regarded by medical patients as less stigmatizing and by health providers as more cost-effective than individual treatment (3).

  • Cognitivebehavioral Methods in Highconflict Divorce
    COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL METHODS IN HIGH-CONFLICT DIVORCE: SYSTEMATIC DESENSITIZATION ADAPTED TO PARENT–CHILD REUNIFICATION INTERVENTIONS Benjamin D. Garber Children who are triangulated into their parents’ conflicts can become polarized, aligning with one parent and rejecting the other. In response, courts often order families to engage mental health professionals to provide reunification interventions. This article adapts empirically established systematic desensitization and flooding procedures most commonly used to treat phobic children as possible components of a larger family systems invention designed to help the polarized child develop a healthy relationship with both parents. Strengths and weaknesses of these procedures are discussed and illustrated with case material. Key Points for the Family Court Community: • Family law and psychology agree that children should have the opportunity to enjoy a healthy relationship with both parents • Adult conflict can polarize a child’s relationships, including rejection of one parent • Existing clinical and forensic “reunification” strategies often prove inadequate • Reliable and valid cognitive behavioral methods can be adopted to facilitate this process • A cognitive-behavioral “exposure-based” reunification protocol is discussed Keywords: Alienation; Custody Reversal; Desensitization; Enmeshment; Estrangement; Exposure; Flooding; High-Conflict Divorce; Parent–Child Polarization; Psychotherapy; Reconciliation; and Reunification. “The child develops an anxious and phobic-like response . a mutually escalating cycle of fear and anxiety develop between the child and the alienating parent; the more upset the child is, the more protective and concerned the parent is, which in turn escalates the child’s reactions and so on. Learning theory demonstrates that the correction (extinction) of the avoidance is extremely difficult and requires exposure and systematic desensitization to the avoided circumstance or feared object.” (B.J.

    Behavior Therapy By- Sweta Pathak INTRODUCTION • Therapy -Treatment intended to relieve or heal a disorder: "cancer therapies". 0R • The treatment of mental or psychological disorders by psychological means: like- "he is currently in therapy"; "therapy sessions". • Psychotherapy -The treatment of mental disorder by psychological rather than medical means Behaviour therapy Behavior therapy (BT) is based on behaviorism utilizes a philosophy of naturalism and the spirit of logical positivism. Behaviorism is a reaction to psychodynamic thought and philosophy, particularly to its introspection and its hypothesized inner, human realities such as drives, instincts, ego, id, superego, repression etc. Like Freudian psychoanalysis, behaviorism is Darwinian in outlook. A major assumption of this- Abnormal behavior is acquired in the same way as normal behavior-that is by learning. Techniques of BT Guided exposure therapy-is intended to treat anxiety disorders and involves the exposure to the feared object or context without any danger in order to overcome their anxiety. Or It involves presenting the person with a harmless but fear evoking stimuli until the stimuli no longer elicit fear. Exposure is a form of therapy commonly used in treating phobias and other anxiety disorders. Exposure-based therapy may be effective in preventing the progression from acute stress disorder to post-traumatic stress disorder. During exposure therapy, the person is presented with a fear-evoking stimuli in a controlled, prolonged fashion, until the fear diminishes. Treatment is collaborative, with the patient and therapist working together to decide how and when exposure will take place. Exposure duration depends upon – the type of feared stimuli and the severity of the person’s fears.
