While going through CBT, Levi will be able to identify her problematic behavior, the causes of his addiction and abuse, and having clarified and zeroed in on them, learn to correct them. Essentially, CBT is a collection of strategies learned step by step which allows the individual self-control, mastery over impulses and desires. By using CBT, Levi will learn coping mechanisms, come to understand the negatives of continued drug use, and learn self-monitoring techniques to identify and curb risky behavior.
Residential treatment (RT), which is currently recommended, actually places the substance abuser in a facility where care staff and experts who oversee their treatment monitor them. For Levi, this is a combination of medication, psychotherapy, physical activities, social activities, and counseling. The target is to support, guide, and monitor the client in completing this treatment plan, wherein the target is for the client to be rid of said addiction through the course of the plan. The continuum of care for addictive and compulsive behavior will be an important element in the plan. Additionally, the plan will take consideration of the particulars of the client to fit the plan to the client 's needs, situation, and personality.

Drug and chemical abuse affect many families and that particular family that lives through a loved one who is an addict and the priority is to get help for the individual. In any intervention that involves drug addicts, a family's disposition is very important. Full recovery of any drug addict involves the restoration of the person's life as well as ensuring that those who are around the addict have the best ability when it comes to helping with abstinence which is a long-term goal.

The practice that assist a therapist in determining a client diagnosis and the proper treatment plan that would resolve the issue surrounding the clinet’s diagnosis is Case Conceptualization and Treatment Planning. The clinet’s treatment plan must be appropriate and relational and this will alow any type of medication and adaptions to be adjusted if needed so that modifications and adaptations can be adjusted as needed (Altman, Briggs, Frankel, Gensler, and Pantone, 2002).

The intent for CBT is to collaborate with the client using a variety of cognitive, emotive, and behavioral techniques. to identify potential areas where thinking errors have led to a need to use substances or how substances have created change in beliefs and actions. Counselors can use CBT as their behavior through. Corey (2015) describes CBT as active, directive, time-limited, and psychoeducational structured therapy (p. 443). Moreover, according to Griffin & Botvin (2010) these factors consist of three components, (1)
The residential treatment center should include a twelve step program, which all residents are required to attend. Individual intense therapy on a daily basis is very important. The policy will require all residents to remain at the facility with no visitors allowed. It is important that the policies specifically detail the types of addictions treated such as heroin, cocaine, alcohol, etc. (Abadinsky, 2014). The types of people who are being treated such as: homeless, women, men, high-level executives, celebrities, or etc. (Abadinsky, 2014). The type of environment that the facility resembles such as: resort, hospital, hotel, and etc. (Abadinsky, 2014). The privacy and confidentiality policy should be as specific as possible.

“The goal of CBT is to teach clients how to separate the evaluation of their behaviour from the evaluation of themselves and how to accept themselves in spite of imperfections” (Corey, 2009, p. 279). In CBT the clients are expected to change their current behaviour (normally full of automatic thoughts) to a more rational way of thinking. The clinician will challenge the client’s behaviour in order for the client to understand his or her behaviour and get alternatives to change his/her behaviour. When using CBT, the client’s behaviour changes when they are aware of the abnormal behaviour. This approach allows the client to focus on improving his/her wellbeing. This enhances the client’s awareness of an existing issue and that changes are necessary. The client will develop new coping skills to deal with the situation and develop a new way of thinking from negative (automatic thoughts) to positive (more realistic thoughts). Initially the client may not recognise that a problem exists, but through this process will get

So I meet another person I can do my internship with she is a case manager. What was going through my mind at the time was it is frustrating because you cannot do anything tell others involved do their part. My immediate thought was you have to be very organized, know where to refer clients to programs, be able to use a fax machine, call, and email. Treatment plan meeting is at one o’clock every day. What they do in treatment plan meeting is the doctors, nurses, social workers, therapists, and case manager all get-together and they discuss how the client's treatment is working. They also discuss how they are doing in groups. I really think the treatment plan is a good idea because it tells you what is working for the clients and what is not
Substance abuse complicates almost every aspect of care for the person with a mental disorder. When drugs enter the brain, they can interrupt the work and actually change how the brain performs its jobs; these changes are what lead to compulsive drug use. Drug abuse plays a major role when concerning mental health. It is very difficult for these individuals to engage in treatment. Diagnosis for a treatment is difficult because it takes time to disengage the interacting effects of substance abuse and the mental illness. It may also be difficult for substance abusers to be accommodated at home and it may not be tolerated in the community of residents of rehabilitation programs. The author states, that they end up losing their support systems
