Present- Versus Past-focused Therapy for PTSD and Substance Use Disorder

2 maj 2019 uppdaterad av: Karen Krinsley, VA Boston Healthcare System

Pilot Study of an Integrated Exposure-Based Model for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Substance Use Disorder

This study compares Creating Change, a new past-focused behavioral therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)/substance use disorder (SUD), to Seeking Safety, an evidence-based present-focused behavioral therapy for PTSD/SUD.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

This study evaluates a new behavioral therapy model, Creating Change (CC) for PTSD/SUD. CC helps clients explore the past as a step in their recovery process. It has major public health relevance in that it is a low-cost, flexible model designed for all trauma and substance abuse types, both genders, and all clinical settings. It has particular relevance for VA in that many veterans suffer from PTSD and SUD. The new model demonstrated positive results in two pilot studies.

Intervention / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Seeking Safety (SS)
17 sessions of present-focused therapy Seeking Safety
Seeking Safety is a present-focused, evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy for integrated treatment of patients with PTSD/SUD. It is a cognitive-behavioral therapy comprising 25 topics, each a coping skill relevant to both disorders. In this study 17 of the 25 topics were conducted, one per weekly, one-hour, individual session.
Experimentell: Creating Change (CC)
17 sessions of past-focused Creating Change
Creating Change is a past-focused, integrated, cognitive-behavioral therapy for PTSD/SUD. It has 17 topics, which in this study were delivered in weekly one-hour sessions, in individual format. The treatment explores how PTSD and SUD arose and interacted across the patient's life, including constructing a narrative of its meaning, processing associated emotions and memories, and exploring themes related to these.
