Details

  • Description:
    Brief Alcohol Intervention is an individual-level intervention consisting of two face-to-face sessions, each followed by a telephone booster session. It includes motivational enhancement therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy components applied to reduce alcohol use and subsequently improve ART adherence. The intervention provides information about standard alcohol drinks to determine safer and riskier levels of drinking and alcohol’s effect on health. Participants receive personalized feedback, consider the pros and cons of drinking, and develop strategies for managing risky moods and situations for alcohol use. They also identify skills and activities to develop an alcohol-independent lifestyle.
