This in-depth NCAC (National Certified Addiction Counselor) Exam Study Guide for the 2025/2026 academic year features over 110 carefully curated and fully answered practice questions. The content is structured to provide a comprehensive preparation experience, focusing on key areas essential for success in the NCAC certification exam. Topics covered include types of treatment programs (detox, inpatient, outpatient), addiction screening tools (e.g., MAST, DAST, ASI), ASAM assessment dimensions, relapse stages, and biopsychosocial assessments. The document further explores the neurobiological basis of addiction, including brain structures like the amygdala and prefrontal cortex, as well as neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and GABA. Various evidence-based therapeutic approaches are thoroughly outlined, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and solution-focused therapy. Ethical frameworks are also explained in detail, spanning from principle and virtue ethics to mandatory and aspirational standards relevant to clinical practice. This study guide is highly relevant for students and professionals in Addiction Studies, Clinical Psychology, Mental Health Counseling, Social Work, Behavioral Health, Public Health, and other related programs. It is particularly useful for those preparing for roles such as Addiction Counselor, Case Manager, Clinical Social Worker, or Mental Health Clinician, whether at the undergraduate or graduate level. Keywords: NCAC exam, addiction counseling, practice questions, substance use disorder, ASAM criteria, screening tools, CBT, REBT, motivational interviewing, relapse stages, pharmacotherapy, neurobiology, ethics in counseling, clinical assessment, therapy models
