Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Methods: Experienced counsellors at SNTQ either received further training in the standard treatment (ST) protocol (including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)) or a comprehensive regime of training in MI. 1309 clients were randomized to either the ST group or the group with MI added to the treatment protocol. In order to ensure treatment integrity among counsellors, MI skill was assessed using the Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity Code (MITI).
