 The article presents data on the effectiveness of the psychocorrective program developed by the authors, aimed at improving the cognitive functioning of persons with alcohol dependence syndrome at the stage of active anti-alcohol treatment. The psychocorrective program is developed within the framework of an integrative psychotherapeutic approach, including the techniques of cognitive-behavioral therapy, body-oriented psychotherapy, art therapy, as well as mnemonic techniques used for the development of short-term memory, voluntary attention, and abstract thinking. It is shown that the use of methods of non-pharmacological correction of disorders of cognitive functions in patients of this category can contribute to the recovery of normative cognitive productivity, the formation of conditions for the optimization of therapeutic interaction, and the improvement of the quality of drug addiction treatment.
Key words alcohol dependence, cognitive disorders, rehabilitation of cognitive functions
