Contingency Management: Turning Rewards into Recovery Tools

The challenge is that it really tends to work more in closed environments. But if it's a closed environment, just like you see sometimes in jail, where everything has value, like Jujubes have value, coffee has value. Sometimes people clap and cheer when you've been sober for a little while.
Ever wondered how rewards can help in addiction recovery? In this episode of 'Captain Hooked: The Addiction Project', addiction psychiatrist Dr. Wiplove Lamba and addictions case manager Jean-Paul Michael dive into the concept of Contingency Management (CM). This innovative approach uses rewards to encourage positive behavior changes, particularly in those battling stimulant use disorders. JP shares why CM is close to his heart, recounting its application both in his professional work and personal life. Dr.
Wip also brings in his own experiences, including how he’s used these principles with his kids. They break down the key ideas from Nancy Petry’s groundbreaking book on CM, making complex concepts easy to grasp. Whether you're dealing with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical insights into how CM can be a game-changer. Tune in to discover how small rewards can lead to big changes.
