秀色短视频-tested online addictions therapy now available through Murphy鈥檚 Pharmacies
An online addictions therapy known as Computer Based Training for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT4CBT), piloted and operated by a 秀色短视频 research team, will now be offered free of charge at Murphy鈥檚 Pharmacy location across PEI.
Cognitive behavioural therapy allows patients to recognize triggers, improve coping mechanisms, and alter the behaviour that leads to substance abuse. CBT4CBT鈥檚 efficacy, durability, and cost-savings have been proven in clinical trials and have been praised by patients and therapy personnel. Through web-based delivery, CBT4CBT can reach people even in rural areas 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
鈥淭he CBT4CBT program is engaging, with movies that reflect real world problems. One of the first things you realize when using CBT4CBT is that Anna is having a rough day. Anna, who is trying to stop using, has a horrible day at work, then, has a fight with her husband who offers her drugs,鈥� said Dr. Michelle Patterson, research manager at 秀色短视频鈥檚 Centre for Health and Community Research (CHCR). 鈥淰iewers can watch how to use cognitive and behavioral self-control skills to deal with a problem. There is something powerful about seeing the problem rather than hearing about it in the abstract.鈥�
Access to CBT4CBT is available free of charge. Those dealing with substance abuse can request access at any Murphy鈥檚 Pharmacies location. They will be provided with unique login to access this evidence-based program. For more information, visit chcresearch.ca/cbt4cbt-prescription/
