SUD-Rx Session 3

10th March 2012

General:

The stress in the early intervention sessions (SUD-Rx Session 3 and SUD-Rx Session 4) tends to be more "inside" oriented, while the stress on the later intervention sessions tends to be more "outside" oriented (see Balancing INSIDE and OUTSIDE change work). Use SupervisoryStructures to help get this balance right.

Tasks:

[_] - Check Make or View Client Notes to recap progress in previous sessions and your plans for this session.
[_] - Use techniques drawn from CognitiveBehavioural for SUD-Rx to develop a shared dialogue and strategy to address Cannabis use.
[_] - Include some form of ABC Diary-keeping as a Training Challenge.
[_] - Where appropriate use further Motivational Work as required.
[_] - Start to formulate appropriate Social-Ecological Work building on the information you have about the contribution of social-ecological factors to the substance use: record these in Make or View Client Notes.
[_] - Draw up plans for next session in liaison with the young person and your SupervisoryStructures.
