Individual vs group female-specific cognitive behavior therapy for alcohol use disorder
Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment Feb 26, 2018
Epstein EE, et al. - For women with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), researchers tested group-based Female-Specific Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (G-FS-CBT) against an individual Female-Specific Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-FS-CBT). They here delineated G-FS-CBT development, content, feasibility, acceptability, group process, engagement in treatment, and within- and post-treatment outcomes. The current work suggested the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of a group format for female-specific CBT for AUD, a new 12-session, single gender, community friendly, group therapy with programming specifically for women. For individual and group treatment formats for drinking, mood, coping skills, self-confidence, interpersonal functioning, and self-care, similar positive outcomes were observed.
