About the Event

Barbara McCrady, Ph.D.

Distinguished Professor of Psychology

The University of New Mexico

This presentation will provide an overview of current knowledge of women with alcohol use disorder (AUD). Women with AUD experience unique barriers to treatment and are less likely to get treatment than men with AUD. Women enter treatment with more severe AUD and more complex psychological, social, and service needs than men. Treatment programs may reduce barriers to entering AUD treatment and provide services that address the unique needs of women.

​Dr. McCrady is internationally known for her work in empirically supported treatments for substance use disorders, with a particular focus on conjoint therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mutual help groups, and therapies for women. Dr. McCrady has published more than 250 refereed papers, books, book chapters, and commentaries, and has lectured widely on her work in the United States, Canada, and Europe.  This class will focus on her research and trends discovered in women and alcohol use.
