Psychotherapy & Addictions Series: Evidence-Based Family Approaches (CRAFT)

Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT) is scientifically supported, evidence-based, clinically proven approach to helping families of substance abusers and loved ones who refused help. CRAFT provides tools and teaching to families so they can effect change.

CRAFT has 3 goals: To teach families skills to take care of themselves and reduce stress; to reduce behaviors that are more likely to drive or trigger use or avoidance, and to teach skills that motivate and support positive change.

CRAFT is behavioral in that it employs strategies for real-world, observable change. CRAFT is also motivational, drawing from its strength from collaboration and kindness rather than confrontation and conflict.

Learning Objectives:
i. To apply and be able to teach positive reinforcement approaches in your practice
ii. To utilize techniques that reduce punishment and enabling
iii. To apply a frame that enables the de-escalation of anxiety and affects and enhance effective motivational communication.
