Detailed Description
In this phase, 100 individuals entering buprenorphine maintenance at the primary care clinic (Central Medical Unit, CMU) will be randomized to either (1) standard buprenorphine maintenance in which counseling is offered on site, or (2) standard buprenorphine maintenance with CBT4CBT-Buprenorphine substituting for on-site counseling. This will be a 12-week trial.
