200. Pain and Addiction:
Feeling Safe Enough to Heal
190. What to Consider When
Addiction Treatment Isn't Working:
Lessons Learned From Cognitive
Science
BRUCE LIESE, PHD
LEVEL OF INSTRUCTION: INTERMEDIATE
In this presentation, salient constructs associated
with both addiction treatment and cognitive science
are described and applied to clients in addiction
treatment and their clinical providers. It is assumed
that an in-depth and evidence-based understanding
of these constructs has the potential to enhance
clinician skillfulness. Following introductory remarks,
content and processes central to treatment are
presented (eg, structure, collaboration, case conceptualization,
psychoeducation, and standardized
techniques). Next, an overview of cognitive science
is provided, and relevant constructs are described
(eg, uncertainty, judgement, heuristics, bias, problem-solving,
decision-making, expertise, intuition,
and dual processing). Case examples are presented
to demonstrate the application of these constructs to
real-world practice and participants are invited to ask
questions about clinical scenarios relevant to their
own work.

225. Understanding and
Addressing Post-Pandemic
Trauma Impact
KENNETH ROBERTS, MPS, LPCC, LADC
Track: Core Clinical
LEVEL OF INSTRUCTION:
INTRODUCTORY/INTERMEDIATE
The link between individual trauma and addiction
is well documented. Research further supports this
dynamic on a broad scale for population segments
who have experienced catastrophic events. Epidemiological
data highlights a potentiating increase in
trauma/stressor disorder and substance use disorder
patterns immediately following and up to three years
beyond events such as natural disasters or terrorist
attacks. While these types of events typically effect
significant portions of a population, none are comparable
in scope, longevity, and potential impact to
the Covid-19 Pandemic. In the days ahead, Behavioral
Health professionals will be faced with unique challenges
in treating a traumatic event experienced on a
global scale. This presentation will define conceptualization
of Pandemic Trauma and Stress Experience
(PTSE), including differentiation from standard posttraumatic
stress disorder (PTSD) to lessen inaccurate
diagnosis stigma. The workshop will examine existing
evidence-based modalities applicable in treating
trauma and review specific concepts and practices to
support a trauma informed clinical practice setting.
Attendees will gain knowledge and skills for applying
a resiliency focus in treating trauma impacted clients
to support improved recovery outcomes.
MEL POHL, MD, DFASAM;
LES ARIA, PHD
LEVEL OF INSTRUCTION: INTERMEDIATE
Chronic pain is a disease state that is generally
considered one to be managed, not solved. There is
tremendous frustration amongst clinicians in treating
chronic pain because results are often poor, patients
are angry and the costs to society are crippling. The
science now shows a new pathway to a powerful
shift from the structural model of chronic pain to one
based on addressing core neuropsychophysiology.
The information in this presentation will address the
following: The five-key points of chronic pain for pain
recovery, the Polyvagal-informed clinician in the
treatment of chronic pain and addiction disorders,
and the application of internal family systems (IFS)
in befriending the Inner Critic. The presentation will
include demonstrations emphasizing the transformation
of concepts into clinical skills that would be
helpful in treating patients with co-occurring pain
and addiction.
