At CKU, we run the Reduce of Use Program ( POP)
The program includes 8 to 12 sessions that take place once a week.
The goals and methods of implementing POP are individually tailored to each client while maintaining the program's conditions.
POP assumptions:
➔ POP does not aim to holistically change the client's functioning, it is aimed at changing the drinking pattern
➔ The specialist's role is to help the client build and strengthen the motivation and skills necessary to implement and maintain the change
➔ POP focuses on strengthening the clients' sense of self-efficacy
➔ The client has the right to choose the goals and methods of treatment
POP is based on short-term interventions focused on the analysis of the current style of alcohol use and the implementation of procedures that help to achieve self-control over the amount and frequency of its consumption, i.e. limiting alcohol consumption.
These are individual and/or group interventions aimed at developing a disciplined pattern of alcohol consumption, in accordance with a plan established together with the therapist, containing a set of rules regarding alcohol use - (amount, frequency, context, time and place).
1. People who drink alcohol harmfully,
2. People addicted to alcohol, in particular:
-
young adults
-
those with less severe symptoms of addiction
-
those with a shorter history of addiction
-
those experiencing fewer consequences related to drinking alcohol
-
those having better social support
-
those who do not experience severe withdrawal symptoms
-
those who do not have medical contraindications to drinking alcohol (pregnant women, liver diseases, diabetes, mental illnesses and others)
-
alcohol users who do not accept abstinence as the goal of treatment
