Summary

This project will evaluate the effectiveness and mechanisms of mindfulness-based relapse prevention (MBRP) delivered via video conferencing, as compared to referral to online mutual support groups, in supporting long-term whole-person recovery and improvements in neurobiologically-informed domains of addiction among individuals with alcohol use disorder who are interested in reducing or stopping drinking. The project will also examine the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of MBRP as an accessible and freely available continuing care option that supports long-term recovery from alcohol use disorder in all communities nationwide, including medically underserved and health professional shortage areas.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Mindfulness-based relapse prevention

Mindfulness-based relapse prevention (MBRP) is a group-based treatment to provide individuals with skills intended to foster increased awareness of triggers, destructive habitual patterns, and "automatic" reactions to triggering experiences. Mindfulness practices in MBRP are designed to help individuals pause, observe present experience, and bring awareness to the range of choices available in every moment. Through MBRP individuals learn to respond in ways that serve them, rather than react in ways that are detrimental to their health and happiness.

BEHAVIORAL

Online Mutual Support Groups

Mutual support groups are free, peer-led organizations that are designed to help individuals with substance use disorders and other addiction-related problems. Mutual support groups often focus on communication and exchange of addiction and recovery experience and skills. Individuals participate in activities that engage, educate, and support patients recovering from substance use disorder from others facing similar challenges. Mutual help organizations that will be offered as referrals include: Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), In The Rooms, and SMART Recovery.
