Clinical Trainings
on the Evidence-Based Matrix Model of Intensive Outpatient Treatment

2 Day Open Enrollment Trainings: 1 Day Adolescent Update Trainings
The Matrix approach emphasizes the use of outpatient techniques. Treatments focus on lifestyle changes, training in relapse prevention, education about dependencies, and family involvement.

The two-day workshop includes a didactic overview of the Matrix Model and experiential exercises. There will be special emphasis on familiarizing the audience with the most recent findings regarding psychosocial interventions that have proven useful in treating Methamphetamine abusers.

What is the Matrix Model?
A proven effective protocol that has been used to treat thousands of methamphetamine, alcohol, and other substance abuse patients.

Why it works
The Model has been refined over a 20 year period. It is an easy-to-use manualized program that integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, contingency management, motivational interviewing, and other elements to give patients the skills and understanding they need to overcome addiction.

Participants in this training
will be able to:
  • Describe the various elements that comprise the Matrix Model.
  • Describe how the Matrix Model differs from other types of substance abuse and chemical dependency treatments.
  • Describe the usefulness of the Matrix format of cognitive behavioral manualized treatment with difficult and complex populations, such as people with stimulant use disorders.
  • Incorporate elements of the Matrix Model into existing treatment programs.
