Impact of Mindfulness-Based Parenting in Women in Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder

< Back to All Resources

This study from the Journal of Addiction Medicine examines the issue of maladaptive parenting in women with opioid addictions and how to improve quality of parenting through the use of mindfulness-based parenting (MBP) intervention. Within the study, women recruited from substance use disorder treatment programs showed clinically significant improvement in the quality of their parenting behavior. Results of this study show promise to the model of MBP intervention and supporting parenting of mothers with opioid use disorders to enhance bonding.
