Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

EMDR

The EMDR SUD Protocol consists of a detailed interview with respect to traumatic events, the treatment of those with the EMDR standard protocol and a further specific protocol for SUD that is focused on the concept of addiction memory.

OTHER

Treatment as Usual

The TAU condition includes follow-up visits with the psychiatry, psychology and with the nursing service. Visits with the psychiatrist consist to evaluate clinical status and readjust the pharmacological treatment if necessary while visits with the psychologist consist to assess and detect risk situations and to prevent relapses using a cognitive behavioral approach. Finally, the nursing service will provide health and care habits and will carry out the abstinence controls.
