Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MI + CBT)

Purpose

This study looks at the effects of a new therapy protocol called motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy (MI + CBT) versus telehealth delivered MI + CBT, in treating and preventing relapse in people who used to abuse opioids. 

How It Works

​If you participate in this study, you will be randomly assigned to get 12 weeks of counseling in the telehealth delivered MI + CBT group or the in-person MI + CBT group. Both groups will attend 12 weeks of group counseling sessions utilizing MI + CBT.

What You Will Do

​Both groups must complete the following:
  • Ages 19-70 using medications for opioid use disorder
  • Participate in 12 weeks of group therapy sessions lasting one hour to 90 minutes held once a week
  • Complete questionnaires at the beginning, at week 6, week 12, and 2 months after completing the group sessions
  • Provide a saliva sample every time you complete the questionnaire
  • Participate in an exit interview at the end of the study, which will last about 30 minutes

Compensation

  • You will be given $15 each time you complete the questionnaires and provide a saliva sample 
  • Transportation assistance may be available for participants in the in-person MI + CBT group
