CBT has been shown to be very effective in patients suffering from alcoholism and drug abuse. In addition to individual therapies, couple therapies are also used. In this sense, CBT helps patients face challenges more easily and share their experiences. Also, therapy can be motivating and encourage patients to face the problem of addiction together and modify their behavior.
