Course Description

This course includes research and theories of substance use and abuse as well as principles and practice for assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of substance abuse and addiction. The diversity of addictions is studied including dual diagnoses and interrelationship of addictive modalities. Students will develop specific strategies for working with addictive clients, knowledge about referrals resources, and promotion of responsible behavior.

Course Structure

The instructional format of the Addictive Disorder course utilizes a combination of short-lectures, discussion, role-plays, experiential activities, guest speakers and panels, and round table student presentations. It is taught in a seminar format. Be sure to complete the assigned reading before each class. Videotapes will further supplement class presentations. Due to the shortened summer semester, students will be required to complete additional work outside of scheduled class meetings. Class discussions are an important part of CPY 603. You are encouraged to engage in class dialogue by sharing your own experiences and perspectives. Your class participation will affect your grade.

Course Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, a student will be able to do the following: 1. Demonstrate significant understanding for how counselor and consultant characteristics and behaviors influence helping processes with addictive disorders, including such variables as age, gender, ethnic differences, verbal and nonverbal behaviors, and personal characteristics, orientations, and skills (CACREP II.K.5.a); 2.

Policies and Procedures:

Confidentiality – In order to provide safety for individuals in the class and to protect the confidentiality of clients and class members: All case material will be presented anonymously (without identifying information) to protect the right to privacy of each client. Students will not discuss cases outside class session. Material presented by class peers, including others’ personal information, reactions, etc. should be considered confidential and will be referred to only while in class or privately with one another.

Respect for Individual Differences – The Department of Graduate Studies in Counseling endorses a learning climate that represents diversity and individual differences and encourages the open-minded exploration of differences among individuals. We do not expect all graduates of our program to think the same way, but we do expect that while they are students they will be accepting of differences and strive to understand how other peoples’ perspectives, behaviors, and world views are different from their own.

Attendance Policy – Attendance is required of all students. If it is impossible to attend class, notify me as early as possible. Your final grade will be lowered one half of a letter grade for each unarranged absence, and one letter grade for more than any two absences, excused or otherwise. Students are responsible for all assignments, lectures, announcements, and class discussions even when not present. Make-up tests will not be given after an exam has been administered unless it has been previously arranged b y the professor and student, or in certain circumstances. If you have a conflict with an exam date, speak with the professor at least seven days prior to the test. During the summer vacation, family trips and one day spontaneous trips occur. These things are healthy. To make up for one miss, a list of movies is attached. Please view and review a movie. Your review must be a minimum of five pages. Use your own format for the review. Please link themes from the movie to concepts from reading material and class discussion. Only one movie “make-up” is allowed. Class will start on time and time agreements for class breaks will be honored. Tardiness on the part of one person disrupts the flow of learning for fellow students. Please be prepared to begin and/or resume class as agreed. Penalty for late work: Students will forfeit one letter grade (approximately 10% of the possible points) for any assignments turned in beyond the announced deadline. Deadline is the end of class time the date the paper is due. In some occasions the professor may extend this to electronic submission to 12:00 midnight the day the class is scheduled. Please submit hard copies to the Professor.

Revised 5-12 2 Instructor Availability – If, at anytime, you wish to discuss any issue related to the class with the professor, particularly those related to your performance in this class, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am willing to arrange an appointment time with you. Please contact as early as possible if you think you something can be done to make this course a successful and rewarding learning experience for you. Your suggestions and ideas are always welcome, both during class and outside of class.

Method of Evaluation and Grading – Final grades will be based on a point accumulation basis. Students earn points via exams, papers, journals, outside class assignments, book reviews and participation, and other assignments. Points will be converted into a percentage score. Grades will be assigned as follows: A = 94-100% of total points B- = 80-83% of total points A- = 90-93% of total points C+ = 77-79% of total points B+ = 87-89% of total points C = 74-76% of total points B = 84-86% of total points C- = 70-73% of total points

Incomplete Policy – Please refer to the Graduate Studies Catalogue for additional details. Students who are unable to complete course requirements within the time limitations of the semester are responsible for initiating an arrangement with the professor prior to the end of the term in order to receive an “incomplete.” A contract for completion must be submitted in writing specifying deadline dates. If the incomplete is not resolved by the end of the following term, the grade will convert to “F.” The contract can be located on the counseling program website (see “Forms and Publications” link).

Academic Honor Code – Membership in the student body of Rollins College carries with it an obligation, and requires a commitment, to act with honor in all things. In addition, the counseling profession provides guidelines of ethical behavior. Because academic and professional integrity is fundamental to the pursuit of knowledge and truth and is the heart of the academic life of Rollins College, it is the responsibility of all members of the College community to practice it and to report apparent violations. The following pledge is a binding commitment by the students of Rollins College:

The development of the virtues of Honor and Integrity are integral to a Rollins College education and to membership in the Rollins College community. Therefore, I, a student of Rollins College, pledge to show my commitment to these virtues by abstaining from any lying, cheating, or plagiarism in my academic endeavors and by behaving responsibly, respectfully and honorably in my social life and in my relationships with others.

This pledge is reinforced every time a student submits work for academic credit as his/her own. Students shall add to all papers, quizzes, tests, lab reports, etc., the following handwritten abbreviated pledge followed by their signature:

On my honor, I have not given, nor received, nor witnessed any unauthorized assistance on this work.

Material submitted electronically should contain the pledge; submission implies signing the pledge.

Students with Disabilities – Rollins College is committed to equal access and does not discriminate unlawfully against persons with disabilities in its policies, procedures, programs or employment processes. The College recognizes its obligations under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 to provide an environment that does not discriminate against persons with disabilities. If you are a person with a disability and anticipate needing any type of academic accommodation in order to participate in this class, please make appropriate advance arrangements with the Rollins College Disability Services Coordinator located in the Thomas P. Johnson Student Resource Center.

Use of Computers in Class – Use of lap top computers may be used during didactic/formal class presentations. Please discontinue computer lap top use during small group and experiential learning times. There are occasions when lap top computers use can be disruptive to your colleagues. Please use your best counseling observation/mindfulness skills to determine if such is the case.

Revised 5-12 3

Self Disclosure – Although it is likely that you will be asked to disclose thoughts and feelings that are personal in nature in class, please remember that you are in charge of what you choose to disclose in front of classmates. You do not have to reveal any information that you choose not to reveal. I consider confidential any information that you disclose within your journals and papers or privately in conversations with me. Many students completing this class are emotionally impacted by the experience. Please feel free to consult with me along the way if you need further clarification or to process your experiences.

Required Assignments and Learning Experiences (possible points)

Final Examination (15 points) Week 10.

There will be a final in class exam worth 15 points. The format will be multiple guess, true or false and case vignette. The professor will have final determination between a disputed response(s) if there is (are) a conflict between sources.

Interview Recovering Person (20 points) Due by week 4.

Students will be expected to complete an interview, structured as an “Assessment”, with a recovering individual. “Recovering from what”, you might ask. “An addictive disorder”, I would respond. Subheadings: Please gather information from the following domains: Medical, Employment/School, /Drug Use, Family, Legal, and Psychiatric. Please look for “role impairment” as identified in the Diagnostic Statistical Manual IV TR. Once you have obtained information in these domains ask them “How they achieved their recovery status and what are they doing to maintain it”.

Outside Meeting(s) and Reaction Paper (20 Points) due by week 8.

Students will be expected to attend three or Narcotics Anonymous meetings. Students may also attend a Rational Recovery, Women for , Overeaters Anonymous, Gamblers Anonymous, Sexual Addiction Anonymous, Adult Child of an Addict/Alcoholic (ACOA) meeting, Al- Anon or Nar-anon meeting to meet one (1) of the required three (3). Students are to write 3-5 page reaction paper. These 3-5 pages are for all three meetings combined. You do not have to write a reaction paper for each meeting you attend. Remember, students must, however, attend at least two AA or NA meetings. Attendance must take place during the current summer semester.

This paper will be 15 points. Points will be awarded or deducted based on grammar, syntax and writing skill. One point per grammatical error will be deducted. To allow differences in philosophical opinions no points will be deducted for academic expression regarding philosophical content. Subheadings: Pre- meeting thoughts/feelings. Arrival: The Setting: The Sharing: The Closing: The Ride Home.

Journaling (20 Points)

Students will be expected to choose something that they will “quit”, “give-up”, “go without” and journal their reaction to what they have chosen. This will be shared with the professor and if the student would care too, excerpts may be shared in class. Often, class will begin with the following question, “What have you learned from your journaling this week?” Gaps of two or more days will result in loss of one point per every two days not recorded. This may be handwritten or typed. Due to the size of the class, the professor will randomly collect a portion or all of the class’s journals and return them the following week. Students are responsible to continue their journaling even when the professor has collected their journal for the week. This process will be repeated during the semester. In addition, all journals will be collected on the 9th class meeting. This task will begin the day after class begins and will end on the 9th class meeting. This process may be both burdensome and enlightening. The professor may challenge and support your entries in written feedback in your journals as it relates to the addiction process you personally describe. Please disclose only what you are comfortable in sharing with the professor. The rules of confidentiality will apply with your journals.
