QuikFix is a coping skills enhanced motivational interviewing intervention, which targets personality risk variables underlying and maintaining substance use. A randomised controlled trial found QuikFix was more effective than traditional MI or an assessment feedback control. This presentation will provide an overview of the key components of QuikFix and describe how QuikFix is being applied in practice.
