About this course
Adolescents experiencing substance use disorders (SUDs) face significant barriers to accessing timely and effective treatment, particularly in rural and underserved areas. Telehealth has emerged as a promising solution, yet challenges such as digital inequity, confidentiality concerns, and engagement difficulties remain. Mental health professionals must be equipped with the knowledge and skills to navigate these complexities, ensuring that virtual care is both accessible and effective for youth in need. This course provides an in-depth exploration of telehealth applications in adolescent SUD treatment, offering evidence-based strategies for enhancing engagement, integrating family support, addressing cultural considerations, and advocating for policy reforms that expand access to care. Through a focus on best practices and emerging innovations, this training prepares clinicians to optimize telehealth interventions and improve outcomes for adolescents struggling with substance use.

Real reviews, real results
I am always interested in continuing education in the areas of health, wellness, nutrition and mental health. Your course was well written, well organized and helpful in meeting state licensure requirements.
Very well written, easy to digest, time efficient, and straight to the point. Thank you!
I appreciate the convenience of the course being online and accessible through my phone and that it directly reports to CEBroker to support mandated education requirements.
I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
I am always looking for concise ,thorough, and up to date continuing education, and this course provided exactly what I was looking for. Thank you
Enjoyed this course! It squarely met my license renewal requirement as a physician. It was well-written, and an altogether enjoyable read.
