CBT FOR ALCOHOLISM

The special strengths that cognitive therapy emphasis on

(1) the identification and modification of beliefs that exacerbate cravings,

(2) the amelioration of negative affective states (e.g., anger, anxiety, and hopelessness) that often trigger drug use,

(3) teaching patients to apply a battery of cognitive and behavioral skills and techniques, and not just willpower, to become and remain drug-free, and

(4) helping patients to go beyond abstinence to make fundamental positive changes in the ways they view themselves, their life, and their future, thus leading to new lifestyles.
