This paper presents a model for advancing interprofessional collaborative practice competencies in supervision as health psychology trainees progress through the developmental stages of clinical competency, while supervising psychologists also maintain interprofessional relationships.

A mixed methods concurrent process evaluation was used within the context of a randomized clinical trial to assess intervention fidelity for a Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) intervention implemented within an IC model. A qualitative content analysis was conducted to develop a participant survey and charting template for the SFBT intervention. Quantitative data were collected through (1) participant surveys, (2) interventionist self-report surveys, and (3) data from participant charts. Descriptive statistics and repeated measures ANOVA were used to analyze quantitative data. Data triangulation was used to present findings. The average SFBT intervention was 24.6 min and 33/34 (97%) of participants in the intervention group completed all 3 SFBT sessions.

Nevertheless, no work to date has comprehensively assessed substance use among individuals with COFP. Here, we examine the prevalence of substance use among adults with COFP. Participants included 246 adults with COFP who were recruited from the Facial Pain Association. Participants completed an online survey that included a comprehensive assessment of substance use (i.e., Alcohol, Smoking, and Substance Involvement Screening Test) between December 2023 and January 2024.

The most commonly used substances were alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, opioids, and sedatives. This study presents a comprehensive assessment of substance use among adults with COFP.
