- Synopsis
- Bowen et al. (psychology and Addictive Behaviors Research Center, U. of Washington) present a relapse prevention program for clients with addictive behavior problems who have completed initial treatment. The program integrates mindfulness practices with evidence-based cognitive and behavioral strategies used in traditional relapse prevention. After describing the program, its development, challenges, lessons learned, and research, they outline eight sessions of group therapy that help to increase awareness of triggers and habitual reactions, and provide methods for coping with urges and cravings related to alcohol and other substance abuse problems.
