M.A.T.R.S.* Treatment Planning: Making Required Data Collection Useful
(*measurable, attainable, time-limited, realistic, specific)
January 30, 2015 - 8:00 am—5:00 pm
(8 continuing education hours)
This workshop seeks to transform required “paperwork” into clinically useful information. There are many tools for
the assessment of substance use-related disorders, such as the Addiction Severity Index (ASI). Counselors working
in treatment centers often find that the instruments are time-consuming and not useful in helping to identify client
problems, develop individualized client-centered treatment plans, or make referrals matched to client needs. This
workshop will help counselors integrate the client’s information into well-designed, individualized treatment plans.
James Bradley, MSSW, has worked in a variety of capacities in the behavioral health field for 35 years. He began his
career as a caseworker in a substance abuse residential treatment program in 1973. Since then, he spent 11 years
at the Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse in the Program Development and Consultation area working
with treatment and prevention programs throughout the state. Currently, he is a trainer and consultant with the
South Southwest Addictions Technology Transfer Center and has conducted over 100 evidence-based trainings for
counselors, clinical directors and administrators
