Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This pilot project will evaluate a new mind-body intervention called Mind-Body Bridging (MBB) for reducing substance abuse problems in women who are undergoing a substance abuse treatment program. The main hypothesis is that MBB will be more effective than the control (standard) intervention program in helping people reduce their craving for illicit substances and/or alcohol.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a randomized clinical pilot study in which MBB will be compared with a standard treatment program for substance abuse. Both groups will run concurrently over the course of a 10-week period, twice per week.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Substance Abuse Education (SED)

The Substance Abuse Education (SED) group will serve as the control intervention in which participants will receive instruction on a variety of topics included in the substance abuse treatment program curriculum. These will include, but are not limited to, information about anger management, smoking cessation, women's issues, and stress management, and approaches to help reduce cravings. Each week the TAU group will meet and a House of Hope (HOH) clinical staff member will discuss the above and related issues and how these may help individuals deal with their substance abuse and related psychological issues.
