Integrating behavioral therapy with pharmacotherapy in the treatment of patients with substance use disorders.
This talk will focus on the role of behavioral therapy in patients with substance use disorders who are also receiving pharmacotherapy for their SUD. The talk will review the general goals of behavioral therapy in this population and then review specific behavioral therapies that are used with specific medications for alcohol and opioid use disorders.
Objectives
- Review the general principles of behavioral interventions in patients receiving pharmacotherapy for substance use disorders.
- Review specific behavioral interventions that accompany disulfiram and naltrexone treatment of alcohol use disorder.
- Review specific behavioral interventions that accompany buprenorphine treatment of opioid use disorder.

RESEARCH, TEACHING, AND CLINICAL CONTRIBUTIONS:
- Narrative Description of Research:
I have focused my research and clinical interests on the evaluation and treatment of 1) patients with cocaine dependence, and 2) substance dependent patients with psychiatric illness. In the 1980s, I was among the first researchers to report the high rate of psychiatric disorders in drug dependent patients. At that time, psychiatrists had little interest in addiction; my work helped to emphasize the importance of psychiatric expertise in treating this population. I next conducted a number of studies that were highly relevant to the daily practice of addiction treatment. Indeed, part of my strength as a researcher has come from my extensive clinical experience as director of the addiction treatment program at McLean Hospital since 1980. This experience has taught me the types of questions that clinicians face regularly; my research has thus focused on these issues-. For example, my work has focused on the process of making psychiatric diagnoses in substance dependent patients (e.g., the utility of various standardized diagnostic instruments, depression rating scales, and biological markers) as well as the importance of recognizing heterogeneity within the substance dependent population (e.g., gender differences in cocaine abusers, differences related to the primary drug of choice).
I worked with Dr. Lisa Najavits to develop and test a treatment for drug dependent women with
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. As PI of the Harvard site of the NIDA Collaborative Cocaine Treatment Study, the largest controlled study of psychosocial treatment of cocaine dependence ever conducted, I was the first researcher to examine the role of self-help attendance among cocaine dependent patients. I was PI of the Harvard site of the NIAAA-funded Project COMBINE, a multicenter site examining optimal combinations of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy for alcohol dependent patients, and was PI for the Harvard site on a NIDA-funded study of Genetics of Cocaine Dependence.
In recent years, my work has evolved from an emphasis on evaluation to a focus on treatment strategies for discrete subgroups of substance dependent and dually diagnosed patients. Recently, I developed the first treatment designed specifically for patients with coexisting bipolar disorder and substance dependence. I conducted three studies of this treatment, including two randomized controlled trials, both of which demonstrated the efficacy of Integrated Group Therapy. Integrated Group Therapy has been cited by the National Institute on Drug Abuse as one of the five promising treatments for patients with co-occurring psychiatric illness and substance dependence. I am now PI for the Northern New England Node of the NIDA Clinical Trials Network, a multisite study designed to develop and implement drug abuse treatment studies in community treatment programs. As part of that network, I led the multi-site Prescription Opioid Addiction Treatment Study; the largest study ever conducted examining treatments for patients dependent upon prescription opioids.

- Report of Current Research Activities:
I am a PI of the New England Consortium Node of the NIDA Clinical Trials Network (CTN). The CTN is a nationwide effort by NIDA to improve the overall quality of drug abuse treatment by forging a partnership between academic research centers and community drug abuse treatment programs as well as general medical settings. . Researchers and community treatment program clinicians work with each other to develop and carry out research studies in community programs. As part of that network, I led the multi-site Prescription Opioid Addiction Treatment Study: the largest study ever conducted examining treatments for patients dependent upon prescription opioids. I am currently testing treatments for patients with opioid use disorder in the multi-site Retention, Duration, Discontination (RDD) trial, including the first prospective study of patients who are stable on buprenorphine and are tapering off the medication.

- Professional Leadership Roles Related to Teaching
1992 Organized first review course in addiction psychiatry for the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry
1997- Chairman, Assessment Committee on Substance Abuse for Psychiatry, Core Clerkship and
Psychiatry 700 MJ, Harvard Medical School
- Report of Clinical Activities
- Description of Clinical Practice
I treat primarily substance dependent patients and individuals with coexisting substance dependence and psychiatric illness. I have a small practice, which primarily involves consultation on complex cases.
- Patient Load
As Chief of the McLean Hospital Division of Alcohol and Drug Abuse, I oversee the treatment of patients with substance use disorders and patients dually diagnosed with substance use disorders and coexisting psychiatric disorders. The program attracts patients with complex interactions between substance use and psychiatric illness, with a significant number of regional, national and some international referrals.
- Clinical Contributions
I was the first Psychiatrist in Charge of the Drug Dependence Treatment Unit at McLean Hospital (1980),
and have developed the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Program from an inpatient-based program to a comprehensive continuum of care consisting of inpatient, residential, partial hospital, outpatient, consultative, and off-campus treatment.
- Other Relevant Information
I am frequently asked to speak on clinical treatment of patients with substance use disorders both locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally; I have been asked to perform case consultations in a variety of different settings; I have been asked on several occasions to travel to other countries to see substance dependent patients; and I have consulted to other treatment programs regarding program development. For example, I was among several candidates invited to Johns Hopkins Health System in 1994 when they were considering hiring a consultant to help them plan changes in their addiction program.
