Treatment Modalities and Treatment Settings for Illicit Drug Abuse
Psychosocial Treatment: Psychodynamic and Interpersonal Therapies

These therapies are based on the assumption that dysfunctional social relations can cause or prevent recovery from a substance use disorder. By becoming aware of the relationship between interpersonal problems and substance use, the patient can work towards making changes in order to build a social network that is supportive of recovery.[1]
