Introduction to headspace

headspace: a brief overview headspace is Australias National Youth Mental Health Foundation funded by the Australian Government. The headspace mission is to promote and facilitate improvements in the mental health, social wellbeing and economic participation of young Australians aged from 1225. To this end, headspace aims to be a signicant agent for change in the way that youth mental health issues are responded to across the country. Why headspace?
Mental health and substance use issues are the most serious health problems affecting young people and are a signicant public health issue in the wider community. Approximately one out of every four young people (aged between 12 and 24 years) in Australia will experience a mental or substance use disorder in any given year. These disorders are leading contributors to the burden of disease in young people. Unfortunately, only one in four young people who experience a mental or substance use issue actually receives professional assistance. The current mental health system is not equipped to deal with young people who have mild to moderate mental health issues. This often means that it is difcult for them to obtain timely treatment or nd a service that can respond to their needs. As Australias National Youth Mental Health Foundation, headspace is tackling the issues which stand in the way of young peoples access to appropriate health services.

The headspace model


headspace is changing the way that assistance to young people at risk of mental health and related issues is approached. The emphasis is on: Increasing the communitys capacity to identify young people who are at risk of mental health and related issues, such as substance use, as early as possible Encouraging help-seeking by young people, their families and carers Responding as early as possible to the risk of mental health and related issues using evidence-based interventions provided through an integrated model of care Ensuring that key components of a young persons social recovery, such as links to education, training and employment, are central to the care provided Ensuring that young people play an active role in shaping the delivery of services Ensuring that the headspace model of care provides for the support of family and friends in recognition of the important roles they play in the mental health of young people. This initiative relies on headspace services increasing the clinical capacity for responding to young people with these types of issues.

Section 1.1
Introduction to headspace
The target group
The target group for headspace is all young people in the 1225 year age range. The criteria for access are not to be more complicated than this. This age range is the period during which the onset of mental health issues escalates and reaches its peak. 75% of mental health problems occur by the age of 25. We know that identifying at-risk young people and encouraging them to seek help at an early stage can have a dramatic effect on the prevention of future mental health problems, the use of acute mental health services, as well as the potential effects that such problems can have on other areas of life. The headspace model aims to engage all types of young people, their families and signicant others, not just marginalised young people within a community. We also know that adolescence can be a turbulent time during which there can be quite marked swings between highs and lows, which can themselves be times of risk if a young person is not provided with appropriate support.

How will headspace work?


The engine rooms of headspace are the funded Communities of Youth Services, or CYS. These are youth-friendly hubs or one-stop shops. A CYS has at its core a private practice comprised of medical, allied health and psychiatric practitioners. These people will work closely with allied health practitioners that have been funded by the Department of Health and Ageings Youth Mental Health Initiative, as well as the headspace staff. There are also practitioners from mental health, drug and alcohol, and vocational assistance organisations. The models must provide for the direct service provision of the four core streams of headspace through the hub; primary health care, mental health, Alcohol or Drug services, and social and vocational services. 30 CYS sites have been established across metropolitan, regional and rural Australia since early 2008.

The headspace biopsychosocial model of intervention


Historically substance use and mental health treatment services have not always worked well together, often resulting in young people with needs across both areas falling between the gaps. Consistent with the view of the Australian Government, headspace does not view substance use and mental health in isolation of each other. headspace aims to provide a coherent understanding of mental health issues in a holistic way that is appropriate to the developmental needs of young people. The headspace biopsychosocial model of intervention seeks to intervene early in the cycle of substance use and mental illness, with the objective of providing timely, concurrent, integrated and less restrictive evidence-based interventions to improve the physical and mental health of a young person.

How is Motivational Interviewing and Behaviour Change Technique (MI & BCT) training relevant to a CYS?
Early detection of emerging mental health and/or substance abuse problems among young people is critical to building the capacity of CYS sites to provide more effective responses. Additionally, the identication of problematic behaviours that support or compound substance use and/or mental health problems is a necessary component for the CYS site. Although identication of mental health or substance use problems with rst contact practitioners, such as general practitioners, community health workers and school counsellors, may be initiated by the young person, there is often a high level of ambivalence in the young person towards engaging in the behaviour changes that are needed to effectively manage the problem. Practitioners will need to feel condent in their ability to engage and communicate with a young person on their ambivalence to making changes related to their mental health or substance abuse problems. To do this, practitioners will need to have a good understanding of the models and skills of motivation to change relevant to the young persons readiness to change, and techniques to support the implementation of behavioural goals.

Section 1.3
Structure and content of the workshop

Overview The MI & BCT training package is developed as an eight-hour workshop followed by a two-hour Practice Review session that occurs four weeks following completion of the One Day Workshop. The MI & BCT material is presented as two half-day modules (A & B) that can be run on the same day, or if more convenient for the participants, they can be run across different days as two sequential modules. The assumption for Module B will be that the participants have completed Module A.
The Participant Manual includes notes pages for the two-hour Practice Review workshop. The Practice Review session reinforces the skills developed in the workshop modules. The training package has been developed to be in line with the overall aims of headspace training packages. That is, it aims to adopt an early intervention model of care, that reects content and practice that is evidence-based and theoretically sound, and provides effective and culturally sensitive approaches to working with young people with mental health and/or substance use issues.

Learning objectives
Following the MI & BCT training, participants will have an: Understanding of effective models of service delivery for young people with co-morbid mental health and substance use problems based on harm minimisation Ability to appropriately use a range of effective interventions for young people with co-morbid mental health and substance use problems, including Motivational Interviewing and cognitive-behavioural treatments Ability to introduce harm reduction strategies appropriately to young people who present with co-morbid mental health and substance use problems Ability to use Motivational Interviewing appropriately, in order to resolve ambivalence about changing behaviours and engaging in treatment, improve the young persons intrinsic motivation to change, and maintain low levels of treatment resistance Understanding of relevant behaviour change models, procedures for assessing readiness to change, and how to apply Motivational Interviewing principles with young people to prepare them for cognitive-behavioural treatment interventions Understanding of the cognitive-behavioural model for treatment of co-occurring mental health and substance use problems Ability to undertake an assessment, construct a formulation, and determine appropriate forms of cognitive-behavioural intervention for young people with co-occurring mental health and substance use problems Ability to provide effective behavioural interventions for co-occurring mental health and substance use problems in young people.

Target workshop audience


The following materials have been developed as a face-to-face training package suitable for psychologists, allied health workers (e.g. social workers, occupational therapists) and others who work with young people (e.g. youth workers, teachers, police) to develop skills in effective interventions for young people, aged from 1225 years, with mental health and/or substance use problems. The specic content of this training package is the development of skills in Motivational Interviewing, behaviour change processes and strategies relevant to the young persons readiness to change, and goal setting techniques. The workshop has been constructed for training a maximum of 24 participants at a time.

Delivery of workshop

Overview The workshop will be delivered on a face-to-face basis. The workshop is structured to be the primary strategy to assist in the learning of new information and skills. The Practice Review Workshop comprises the secondary strategy to assist learners in consolidating and extending workshop-based learning into their work environment, as well as to reect upon and discuss implementation issues including any difculties that may arise.
The MI & BCT training package: Includes interactive learning activities such as case discussions, role-plays and other simulated practice activities Uses an adult and problem-based learning approach Is based on theoretically derived information and evidence-based research. The workshop activities aim to: Improve the professionals communication skills with young people Be clinically relevant to the real-life settings Assist with the implementation of the new learning in the workplace.

Specialist trainers
The MI & BCT workshop is designed to be delivered by a specialist trainer recruited through the headspace Service Provider Education and Training (SPET) program.

Case studies
It is noted that the workshop material has been designed for a maximum of 24 participants. The skill development activities involve the participants working in groups of three participants. The review by the facilitator of a maximum of eight groups (each with three participants) during each training activity has been determined to be the maximum number of groups viable for the effective training of professionals. The essence of the training is centred on person-focused assessment techniques and intervention development approaches. The case-based application of knowledge and skills presented in the following materials will train the professional to meet the different development needs of young people across the age range, the differences in remote as opposed to urban lifestyles, and a range of socioeconomic circumstances. Various case studies will be provided, but often the most appropriate case studies can be generated from the training group. The facilitation of training should accommodate cases presented from the local participants, who are familiar with the socioeconomic and cultural realities of the local area or a particular age group that is the focus of the local headspace activities. The facilitator is also encouraged to actively seek out case examples that capture issues relevant to the local community, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and culturally and linguistically diverse people in the area.

Evaluation

The principal aim of headspace Service Provider Education and Training (SPET) packages is to increase practitioners skills in engagement and assessment and the use of evidence-based medical and psychosocial interventions appropriate for young people with mental health and/or related substance use issues. There is an internal and external evaluation process for headspace SPET packages. External evaluation
headspace will evaluate each training package in a pre- and post- online format. The pre-evaluation will take place shortly before participants attend the workshop. This questionnaire requests information pertaining to the participants professional background and their level of understanding, knowledge, skills and condence related to the learning objectives of the training packages. The post-workshop evaluation will take place in the weeks following the training. The questionnaire will assess the degree of change in participant responses to the above questions and any perceived change in participant skills in practice as a result of the training.

Internal evaluation
The headspace Service Provider Education and Training (SPET) program will evaluate the quality of the training delivery from the participants and facilitators viewpoint. This evaluation will take place on the day of the workshop. Facilitators need to ensure that time is made available at the end of the workshop for participants to complete these internal evaluations. Along with the Facilitator Feedback Form, facilitators are asked to post the participants evaluations to the SPET program as detailed on the evaluation forms. The Evaluation Forms are located in the Appendice section of this guide.

Looking Forward

Slide 4.19

Looking Forward has the young person envision two futures: 1. If they continue on the same path without any changes where they might be five or ten years from now. 2. If and the emphasis is on if they decided to make a change in their behaviour, what that future might look like.

Looking Forward

Slide 4.20

The health practitioners job is not to argue one position or another, but rather just elicit the information and then ask the young person to comment on these imaginings.

Reviewing previous successes

Slide 4.21

Here, we build rapport while gathering information. The health professional avoids a focus on problems, focusing instead on how the behaviour goals fit into the young persons life. Can we spend a few minutes going through the last few days. What happened, and how did you try to work towards achieving your goals?

Case study:

Adam
Adam is a 16-year-old male who has presented to you for help with his alcohol use. He does not want to attend the appointment but has done so at the recommendation of his school coordinator who has expressed concern with his performance. Adam enjoys going to school and aspires one day to be a business man. However, he has a reputation for being the class clown and disrupting classroom activities. Adams parents have recently separated and he has been nding it difcult to cope with the change. His parents are both well educated and have established careers. He is currently living with his mum and two older brothers. He doesnt really get along with his mum but has a good bond with his eldest brother, who has been worried about Adams moods being up and down. Adam goes to parties every weekend with his mates. They consume excessive amounts of alcohol and Adam often ends up drunk. Sometimes he passes out when he gets home and experiences memory loss. Adam nds that drinking alcohol makes him relax. When he is drunk he doesnt get as angry and gets along better with other people. He has begun having a drink every day to achieve this relaxed feeling, consuming about six cans of pre-mixed drinks during a single day. Adam is physically well-built and enjoys playing football on the weekends. He has the potential to play for his district team if he attends training more regularly and applies himself. This has been quite difcult for him lately as he has been feeling depressed. Adam knows that his drinking is unhealthy but doesnt see any way of changing it.

Motivational Interviewing techniques
1. Listen, build rapport attitude of being respectful of the adolescents values and choices. 2. Acknowledge your agenda and the adolescents difculty or ambivalence to changing behaviour Motivational Interviewing involves collaboration. 3. Focus on a specic behaviour. 4. Assess importance and condence: (a) How important is it to you, from 1 to 10? (b) Why so high? (c) What would help you move higher? (d) How high would you have to be to change? (e) How condent are you about changing, from 1 to 10? (f) What would help you move higher? (g) How high would you have to be to change? 5. Work on importance (a) What are the good things about the behaviour? (b) What are some of the not so good things about it? (c) Share information about risks: dont push information, ask what they already know, whether they want to know more, allow the adolescent to make the links (d) Manage resistance: Shift focus, express empathy, emphasise the adolescents control, summarise their position (e) Summarise the pros and cons. 6. Build condence (a) Is there anything youve found helpful in previous attempts to change? (b) Is there anything you can learn from any problems you had last time you tried? (c) Do you know other people who have successfully changed? What worked for them? 7. Summarise both importance and condence with Where does that leave you now? (a) Im not interested in changing - As your psychologist/health professional I am concerned about (my agenda). If you want to discuss this again, Im here (b) I want to do it! - Talk about how (practical aspects/preparation stage of change/goal setting) (c) Ive got to think about it - Encourage reection/monitoring (processes relevant to contemplation stage of change/diary/pros and cons).

Case study:

Sally
Sally is a 17-year-old female who is in the nal year of secondary school. She has presented to you at the recommendation of her parents after they caught her smoking cigarettes behind the garage before school. Sally is an only child and lives at home with her parents. Sally gets along with her parents quite well but feels they hold quite high expectations of her. Her parents want her to go to university to study Law but she feels that she cannot achieve a high enough university entrance score. Sally has been extremely anxious and stressed about her studies and her future. Sometimes she feels as though there is no point continuing her education, and that she is a failure. Most of Sallys friends do not intend to go to university so do not study and spend most of their weekends going to parties. She nds her friends dont understand the pressures in her life, or why she wont go out with them every weekend. One of Sallys friends introduced her to cigarettes, telling Sally they would help her to relax after school or whilst studying. All of her friends smoke and Sally thought that taking up smoking might eliminate her reputation for being a good girl. Sally nds smoking reduces her anxiety, helping her cope with the stresses of studying, and pressures from her parents. Sally now smokes at least one pack a day and feels she cant get by without them. On the rare occasion that she goes out on a weekend with her friends, she has experimented with marijuana. Whilst at the moment she reports that she does not use marijuana regularly, she does have easy access to it, and she could see herself using it to manage her stress. Sally recognises that she is not coping well and needs help with other ways of handling her stress, but she feels she has already tried everything, and it is useless.

Motivational Interviewing skills
An important aspect of the training in Motivational Interviewing is the determination of opportunities and supports to practice the skills outside the training session. If we want to be good at anything, we need to practice. Additionally, the reinforcement of skills learnt in the training cannot be left to chance. Strategies to reinforce your training: 1. Identify two specic existing or new clients with whom you will use MI skills at the next session 2. Identify a colleague to whom you are going to explain the skills of MI 3. Identify a buddy in your work group that you can discuss your progress with the MI skills - Make a time in the coming week to meet or telephone - Discuss your successes and challenges in using MI with an adolescent client.

Questions to answer with your colleague


Did you use reective listening and paraphrasing? Did you assess the importance and condence of the adolescent to change the chosen behaviour? Could you identify the adolescents stage of change for a specic behaviour? Did you seek to conrm your assessment of the stages of change with the adolescent? Did you manage your urge to offer solutions too early or unrequested?

Worksheet 5
Readiness to Change stages and processes sheet
The following examples of discussion and intervention focus on a range of behaviour change goals including reduced alcohol and drug usage, increasing healthy eating, exercise and school/work attendance, positive social interactions, improved sleeping patterns and quitting smoking. STAGES OF CHANGE
Precontemplation

PROCESSES

SPECIFIC EXAMPLES

Processes in this stage need to encourage thinking about change, not doing change. Do not make a plan for action. Consciousness raising 1. Keeping a diary of their weekly sleeping patterns (e.g. bed time, wake time, sleep duration, sleep quality, etc.). 2. Recalling information about the desired amount of sleep per night for a person their age. 3. Discuss with the person the benets of exercise to help negative mood. 4. Evaluate the cost of drugs/alcohol and poor education outcomes over time versus the adoption of healthy and achievement oriented behaviours. 5. Budget the cost of a holiday with mates. 6. Recalling a time when energy levels were good and identify the behaviours from that time. Dramatic relief 1. Discuss that any reduction in substance abuse (marijuana, alcohol, nicotine, hard drugs) can help to feel more in control. 2. All things being equal, people without addictions are happier and healthier. 3. Reacting emotionally to the idea that they will miss out on success and good friends if they continue along the current life-path. 4. Discuss the consequences of continued drug habits even in terms of worst-case scenarios. 5. Reection of the emotions around being a person with a substance abuse problem. That is, how do you feel, how do people treat you and how could life be better? 6. Feeling disappointed that they will no longer be smoking and this may restrict shared activities such as catching up with work colleagues or friends when at the smoking spot. They can still go out with friends and enjoy themselves without going outside for a smoke. 7. Discuss that managing a substance abuse problem can be of value to them and not just for the practitioner or their family. 8. Substance abuse control gives the young person more power and exibility with their life choices. 9. It is safer for the person to know their blood alcohol levels. Environmental re-Evaluation 1. Discuss feeling disappointed that travelling, having a good job and other activities is not possible because they have a substance abuse problem. 2. Thinking that avoidance of physical exercise is hurting their partner and family by restricting the possibility of shared activities (picnics, beach trips, bush walking, etc). 3. Think about the avoidance of social activities that arise from being unable to commit to healthy food choices. 4. Consider the future impact your substance abuse problem is having on others the burden for family and friends.

Worksheet 5 (continued)

STAGES OF CHANGE
Contemplation

PROCESSES

SPECIFIC EXAMPLES

Processes in this stage are focused on encouraging the contemplation to extend into preparation. Get them to try healthy behaviour changes in small amounts and then perhaps to build up. Self reevaluation 1. Discuss the benets of not drinking alcohol for themselves and their family (impact of alcohol long-term and quality of life). 2. Would their self-image be improved if they saw themselves as a less-drunk person at parties? 3. Evaluate and list the barriers of having a weekend without drugs or alcohol and determine things that can be changed easily and those that will take time. 4. Think about how a change in smoking can impact on other chronic problems you may experience such as asthma. 5. Would their self-image be improved if they had more control over their use of drugs and alcohol?

Preparation

Processes in this stage are focused on developing achievable goals or preparation to extend into action. Build on any previous healthy behaviours and encourage goal-focused strategies. Self-liberation 1. Discuss with the person the types of activities they are planning to start to help improve their mental health. 2. Discuss the benets of making goals and a plan. 3. List the types of activities they have found particularly enjoyable in the past (e.g. exercise, socialising, lms, etc.). 4. Discuss career options to assist in making a decision to attend school regularly. 5. Enrol in karate or group exercise classes. 6. To inform yourself of the wealth of opportunities available. 7. Sign a contract to eat healthily for a certain number of meals per week or snack on healthy alternatives. 8. Discuss the benets of making goals and a plan. Social liberation 1. Discuss the support available to have a substance-free weekend. 2. Identify the support available for avoiding depressed or anxious feelings. 3. Form a new group of friends. 4. Involve a family member in assisting you to make healthy choices.

Action

Processes in this stage are focused on achieving the set goals. Develop possible strategies for managing the barriers to regular healthy behaviours. Stimulus control 1. Discuss associating physical activity with a specic daily activity (pairing the activities together). 2. Have a list of future outings that will be enjoyed as mood improves 3. Have friends who do not offer cigarettes to you. 4. Improve your personal hygiene and appearance (hair cut, clean clothes etc.). 5. Work on planning small time-limited exposure to high risk situations.

Section 4
Worksheet 5 (continued)

STAGES OF CHANGE PROCESSES Counterconditioning AIMS AND SPECIFIC EXAMPLES 1. Organise alternative social activities to replace high risk situations (e.g. work/school nights, weekends, holidays etc.). 2. Substitute sitting watching an afternoon program on TV with going for a run. 3. Have a number of different activities planned. 4. Drink water in place of having a cigarette. 5. Walk to meet friends to establish a healthy mindset before you are offered cigarettes. 6. Allow oneself a reward if goals are achieved (e.g. download music, new running shoes). 7. Substitute drinking a second can of beer with a glass of water. Helping Relationships 1. Participate in a sporting group to get support in developing an interest in new activities. 2. Arrange a health coach (could be a friend) to discuss the healthy living program (goals, barriers, motivational strategies, etc). 3. Arrange an exercise partner to whom they can compare progress. 4. Have regular reviews with your practitioners. 5. Develop relationships with new friends. 6. Recruit supportive family members to ride the roller-coaster with you, provide stability. Reinforcement Management 1. Encourage family and friends to acknowledge the improvements in health, behaviours and mood. 2. Identify the benets in health (energy, sleep etc) from being substance free. 3. Close friends and family might be aware of an improvement in mood since exercising and changing substance use behaviours. 4. Keep a diary of positive comments people are making about your choices or appearance changes. 5. Examine the benets of better health in terms of time management: less time sleeping, recovering from a hangover etc. 6. Give yourself health rewards. 7. Family and friends are not worrying about you so much.
Maintenance

Processes in this stage aim to reinforce the action stage of behaviour change. Reinforce behaviour change strategies that maintain healthy behaviours. Relapse prevention 1. Set up a system of visual reminders in the bedroom or on the mobile phone. 2. Give an example to young children that drug habits could have an impact on the childs future health. 3. Develop a plan if behaviours start to slide. 4. Construct a support system if new behaviours begin to diminish 5. Reect on the benets of the change on a regular basis. 6. Plan new and healthy adventures (e.g. holidays, study, work etc).

Eloise
Eloise is a 15-year-old female who lives in a small country town with her parents and older sister. She is not close to her sister but gets along well with her parents. Eloise does quite well at school and has been learning to play the guitar for the past four years. Eloise feels self-conscious about her appearance and very aware of how the other girls at school look and behave. She has been struggling with being overweight since she started secondary school. She has two classmates that she spends time with in class and during the breaks. She doesnt spend any time with them outside of school. Eloise has never had a boyfriend and feels attracted to another female student at her school. She has not told anyone as she believes that her friends and family will hate her if she comes out as being gay. Her sisters boyfriend has been supplying her with marijuana for the past six months as he felt sorry that she didnt have a social life. Eloise reported that the marijuana helped her to deal with the stress associated with her poor social life and sexuality. Eloise has recently been feeling depressed and unlike herself. Whilst the marijuana makes it easier for Eloise to cope with her sexuality, she is nding it harder to concentrate at school and feeling increasingly distant from her family. She is really unhappy and feels that she wants things to change.

Rachel
Rachel is a 19-year-old female who has presented to you for help with her smoking at the suggestion of her partner. She has a nine-month old baby and is not coping with the stress of her new role as a parent. She nds that the babys ever-changing routine and demands for attention are wearing her out. Rachel dropped out of her nal year of high school when she found that she was pregnant. She began working as a receptionist at that time to earn money for when the baby arrived. Since the baby has arrived her work has allowed her to continue her employment one day a week. Her mother looks after the baby whilst she works. Rachel currently lives with her partner who is very supportive of her and the baby, however, he works long days and most of the time Rachel nds herself at home caring for the baby alone. Both Rachels parents are supportive, but they want Rachel to take responsibility for the baby herself and not rely on them for babysitting. Rachel began smoking as a 15-year-old and only quit when she learnt she was pregnant. The stress of caring for a child has led Rachel to take up smoking again to calm her nerves during the day. Her partner is concerned that Rachels smoking will harm the baby and has urged her to quit. Rachel agrees with her partners concerns but doesnt know how to cope without the cigarettes.

Travis has noticed that he has been feeling depressed but has not had any suicidal thoughts or experienced any psychotic episodes. Travis feels as though he is slipping back into the old coping patterns he used as a teenager and recognises he needs help. He just feels that there is no other way to deal with his mothers medical condition.
