Neurocognitive Therapy for Substance Use Disorders
Neurocognitive therapy is a therapeutic approach that addresses cognitive deficits commonly seen in individuals with substance use disorders. These deficits, such as problems with memory, attention, and executive function, often result from the chronic use of substances. Neurocognitive therapy aims to restore and enhance cognitive functioning through various exercises and techniques that promote brain plasticity. It may include cognitive retraining, memory exercises, and problem-solving tasks. By improving cognitive abilities, patients are better equipped to handle the challenges of addiction recovery, make informed decisions, and maintain long-term sobriety. This approach plays a key role in addressing the cognitive aspects of addiction and recovery.
