AVERT is a substance abuse craving reduction technique that can help individuals challenge cravings in the immediacy by bringing up realistic events and situations that will happen if you choose to use.

The organ that is diseased in addiction is called the mid-brain which is the part of the brain responsible for our survival needs ( food, sex, fight or flight). The cerebral cortex is responsible for logic, reasoning and moral functioning.

For the most part the cerebral cortex has power over the mid-brain but in addiction this top down control is lost. The mid-brain actually hijacks the cerebral cortex and makes logic, reasoning and moral functioning invisible, allowing for continued use and the continuation of harmful consequences.

AVERT helps interrupt this process and restore the top down control needed to successfully interrupt the mid-brains cruel tool (cravings) and restore rational thinking which leads to abstinence.
