This doctoral-level course is designed as a comprehensive overview of co-occurring disorders (sometimes termed dual diagnosis). This course explores several mental disorders that commonly co-occur with substance use disorders.

Primary and secondary differential analysis, assessment, intervention, and treatment will be addressed along with legal, ethical, and cultural considerations.
