Summary

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Brief Alcohol Intervention

At the Week 6 visit, all subjects who are randomized to the Experimental Group will receive the experimental brief alcohol intervention. The intervention will be in addition to a standard 20-minute physician visit, for a maximum of 30 minutes. The physician will use the Updated NIAAA Clinician's Guide to ask about drinking and will draw the connection between social anxiety and drinking and how they relate to each other. Subjects will be asked to consider making changes in their drinking and if they agree, a goal will be set and progress toward that goal will be monitored at subsequent visits.
