Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Tri-focal cognitive behavioral therapy - social skills training (CBTSS) counseling program

This condition is a Theory-Based Counseling Program. The program will involve nine 90-minute face-to-face counseling sessions that use CBT and strategies associated with social cognitive theory. The theory addresses three treatment domains, including mood regulation, reduction/cessation of meth use, and reduction of high risk sexual practices.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard care

Standard care involves nine weekly, face-to-face individual counseling sessions that provide standard care in relation to sexual risk, methamphetamine use, and depression. The sexual risk component is a modified version of Project RESPECT 1 (CDC, Atlanta) that focuses on educational materials and personal risk appraisal. The meth component is a modified version of the 12-step drug abstinence program developed by the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) (Project MATCH). The depression component is an educational approach based primarily on materials provided by the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).
