The etiology of substance use disorders in adolescence has been traced in part to untreated or undertreated internalizing disorders. Integrated treatment for co-occurring psychopathology and substance use is highly recommended for this population. There has been increasing interest in transdiagnostic interventions that offer a more efficient, acceptable, and parsimonious model for clinicians to learn to treat substance use that co-occurs with other emotion-based disorders. The Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents (UP-A) overlaps with many of the treatment targets proposed in transdiagnostic treatment models for addictions and comorbid emotional disorders. This chapter provides a framework, based on the adolescent addiction treatment literature, to guide implementation of the UP-A with comorbid emotional and substance use disorders. |
