“…This article reviews the evidence base on outpatient behavioral treatments for adolescent substance use (Turner, Muck, Muck, Stephens, & Sukumar, 2004). Because practice guidelines in behavioral healthcare now favor on-site treatment over referral for comorbid disorders (see Sacks et al, 2013), behavioral therapists should be fully prepared to manage common ASU problems that present as a secondary reason for referral or an emergent treatment issue.…”

“…Approximately 125,000 adolescents enroll annually in outpatient ASU treatment nationwide (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2007). Moreover, of the approximately 2.8 million adolescents annually enrolled in outpatient mental health services (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2009), as much as 20% have a co-occurring ASU problem (Turner, Muck, Muck, Stephens, & Sukumar, 2004). Because practice guidelines in behavioral healthcare now favor on-site treatment over referral for comorbid disorders (see Sacks et al, 2013), behavioral therapists should be fully prepared to manage common ASU problems that present as a secondary reason for referral or an emergent treatment issue.…”

“…With regard to youth seeking behavioral treatment, not only is ADHD a leading reason for referral among children age 3–12 (Pelham & Fabiano, 2008), it is also highly prevalent among adolescents, affecting between 18–48% of those enrolled in mental health and substance use services (Tims et al, 2002; Turner et al, 2004; Wu et al, 2011). These are conservative estimates of clinical prevalence given that ADHD is significantly underdiagnosed in adolescent samples (Sibley et al, 2012; Todd, Huang, & Henderson, 2008) and is frequently undetected when it co-occurs with other chronic psychiatric disorders for which teens are typically referred: oppositional defiant and conduct disorder, anxiety, depression, and substance use (see Merikangas et al, 2011).…”
