Multidimensionele familietherapie in West-Europa voor jongeren met cannabisproblemen

Evaluatie van een Europees project

Verslaving

Dit artikel gaat over een behandelprogramma voor adolescenten die verslavingsgedrag vertonen en vaak ook ander probleemgedrag: multidimensionele familietherapie (MDFT). Het is inmiddels effectief bevonden in Europees onderzoek. In enkele jaren tijd zijn al veel Europese teams van therapeuten getraind in het toepassen van MDFT. De implementatie van MDFT verloopt voorspoedig, maar er waren ook heel wat obstakels, die ik hier kort beschrijf. Voor innovatie van behandelpraktijken is onderzoek nodig, maar meer nog een systematische implementatieaanpak, liefst internationaal georiënteerd.

Summary: Implementing multidimensional family therapy in Western Europe

Henk Rigter

Implementation is hard work. There is no way to develop an implementation model for a treatment program that could be uniformly used all over the world. Implementation has to be re-designed in each individual country. If you think doing a randomized controlled trial takes all your energy, try international implementation. International collaboration can speed up implementation. This paper is about the implementation of MDFT in Europe, and especially the Netherlands. It is a success story, but tainted with blood, sweat and tears. MDFT is a treatment program for adolescents with substance abuse and other problem behaviour. It works well in Europe, despite all differences in treatment culture and referral policies. MDFT is here to stay.
