brief MAT follow-up visits.
Outline basic elements of “psychotherapy” as
they apply to this time-limited but longitudinal
setting.
Describe what we can learn and apply from
Cognitive Behavioral and Motivational

The “COMBINE” Study
Combined Pharmacotherapies and Behavioral
Interventions for Alcohol Dependence: A
Randomized Controlled Trial
Anton, RF, O’Malley, SS, et al. JAMA, May 2006
Groups randomized to med management with
naltrexone, acamprosate, both and/or both
placebos, with or without a combined behavioral
intervention (CBI). One group with CBI only.
Evaluated for up to one year after treatment.
The Combine Study: Outcomes

Patients receiving medical management with naltrexone,
CBI or both fared better on drinking outcomes.

No combination produced better efficacy than naltrexone or
CBI alone in the presence of medical management.

Placebo pills and meeting with a health care professional
had a positive effect above that of CBI alone during
treatment.

Medical Management (MD, RN, PA): Initial 45 min visit,
followed by 20 min visits, on week 1 and 2 and then every
2 to 4 weeks.
Medication Assisted Treatment for
Primary Addiction Treatment

Demonstrated efficacy and FDA approval:
 Alcohol:


Nicotine:


nicotine replacement, buproprion, varenicline
Opioids:



disulfiram, naltrexone, acamprosate
agonist: methadone, buprenorphine/naloxone
antagonist: naltrexone
Investigational but preliminary findings of efficacy:
 Cannabinoids
 Cocaine and other stimulants
Routine Elements of Medication Assissted
Treatment (MAT) Follow-up

Problem solve/provide advice/support recovery

Types of Power for Behavior Change
Inherent in the Clinical Encounter

Reward: ability to give people what they want or need

Coercive: disapproval, denying requests, not seeing

Referent: the “admired other”, role-model

Legitimate: validated authority

Expert: access to knowledge, training, information
5 Basic Elements of Psychotherapy





Expectation of receiving help
Therapeutic relationship
Obtaining external perspective
Encouraging corrective experiences
Opportunity to test reality
“Psychotherapy means a form of treatment of mental
illness or emotional disorders which is based primarily
on verbal interaction with the client.”
NC Dept MH/DD/SAS
“the efficacy of psychotherapeutic methods lies in the
shared belief of the participants that these methods will
work.”
JD Frank
Core Elements of CBT:
Recognize/Avoid/Cope

Recognize: triggers/cues (external/internal)

Anticipate/Avoid: (situations/people/places)
“People/Places/Things”
“Playmates/Playgrounds/Playthings”
“Play the tape to the end.”
“It is easier to avoid temptation,
than to resist temptation”.
Core Elements of CBT:
Recognize/Avoid/Cope

Cope: develop or reinforce skills:
Explore other ways to relax/deal with stress/problem solve
Re-expand dormant behavioral options to socialize/have fun
Connect/re-connect with sources of reward
and “hedonic tone”
“Who needs life when you’ve got heroin.” (Trainspotting)
Rebuild/Reward
“How come if alcohol kills millions of brain
cells, it never killed the ones that made
me want to drink?”
Anonymous
Editing the Patient’s “Story”
The language of the story:
generalizations/delitions/distortions
Therapeutic interventions:
Challenging “learned helplessness”
Reinforcing the power of “yet”
Supporting “self-efficacy”
MotivationaI Interviewing (MI) aims to
help the client…

Enhance intrinsic motivation for change
(mobilize client’s own change resources)

Recognize the need to do something about
the current or potential problem

Resolve ambivalence and reach a decision
for change

Build commitment to change

In practice and in management…
There is an appropriate role for directing
There is an appropriate role for following
But when your goal is behavior change, the optimal style
is usually guiding
William Miller
A Guiding Style…
Reduces resistance (relative to a directing style)
Improves working alliance
Enhances openness to consider change
Facilitates behavior change
Increases self-regulation and internalization of
change
“More like dancing than wrestling.” William Miller
Two Stages of Motivational Interviewing

Phase 1: Building Motivation for Change

Phase 2: Strengthening Commitment to
Change
Four Basic Principles

Express Empathy


Roll with Resistance


Focus on understanding the person’s dilemma
Don’t be the one arguing for change
Develop Discrepancy

Evoke the person’s own arguments for change
Support Self-Efficacy

Encourage belief that change is possible
Change Talk



Change talk is any client speech that favors
movement in the direction of change
Previously called “self-motivational
statements”
Change talk is by definition linked to a
particular behavior change target
Preparatory Change Talk
 DESIRE to change (want, like, wish . . )



ABILITY to change (can, could . . )
REASONS to change (if . . then)
NEED to change (need, have to, got to)
Sustain Talk
The other side of ambivalence.






I really like alcohol/oxy/weed
I don’t see how I could give it up
I need to use to be social
I intend to keep using/no one can stop me
I don’t think I have to quit
I can drink/use once in a while
Implementing Change Talk
Reflects resolution of ambivalence.



COMMITMENT (intention, decision,
readiness)
ACTIVATION (willing, trying, preparing)

But if you try
sometimes…
You get what you
need.
