Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to see whether the Healthy Minds Program for Addictions could be used to help veterans with moderate-severe opioid use disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder stay on buprenorphine maintenance treatment. Participants will be asked to complete a six-week program consisting of 6 weekly, 2-hour in-person group sessions, as well as assessments before the start of the sessions.

Detailed description

This is a 6-week, single-arm, single-center pilot study of the acceptability and efficacy of an adaptation of the Healthy Minds Program for Veterans with opioid use disorder on buprenorphine maintenance treatment. Following the Screening Visit, eligible subjects will complete 6 in-person sessions over the course of 2 months. The first session will be an introductory session introducing the basics of the program. After the introductory session, there will be four weekly sessions, each dedicated to a different domain of the program - awareness, connection, insight, and purpose. Participants will be encouraged to practice daily anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes from a set of practices that will be available to them on a password protected website. The intervention will end with a closing session where participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their experience of the program and share feedback. Weekly sessions will be held in person and will be facilitated by an MD, PhD Psychiatrist and Neuroscientist with 8 years of mindfulness practice together with a certified Peer Support Specialist.
