PCSS-MOUD SUD 101 Course 14: Managing Common Psychiatric Conditions in Patients with Substance Use Disorders (2026)

Co-occurring psychiatric conditions are common in patients with substance use disorders, yet the “abstinence first” approach still shapes too much clinical practice, delaying care that patients need now. This module equips general health care providers – primary care physicians, nurses, PAs, and pharmacists – to recognize and manage the psychiatric conditions most often seen alongside substance use disorders, particularly mood disorders, anxiety and stress disorders (including PTSD), and ADHD. Learners will build skills to screen, diagnose and treat co-occurring disorders and apply standard psychological and pharmacological treatments effectively in this population. The core message: simultaneous screening and treatment of co-occurring conditions, not sequential or abstinence-contingent care, produces the best outcomes. Integrated addiction and psychiatric care is the standard this module prepares every clinician to deliver.
