Habit Change Addiction - Rewiring the Brain: Mechanisms of Change in Addiction Treatment

Brain Mechanisms of Change in Addiction Treatment: Models, Methods, and Emerging Findings

In this episode, Dr. Jud explores groundbreaking insights into the brain mechanisms underlying addiction treatment. Drawing on models, methods, and findings presented at the 2015 Science of Change meeting, this research bridges neuroscience and psychotherapy to identify brain processes driving behavior change. Topics include the role of neuroimaging in understanding addiction treatments like CBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing, as well as how these insights pave the way for personalized, neuroscience-informed interventions.
