The experimental groups recived 8 sessions of Mindfulness- Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) program between pretest and posttest while control group did not receive any intervention. Data were analized by ANOVA with repeated measure with SPSS 16.Results: The results of ANOVA with repeated measure showed that Mindfulness- Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) reduced significantly DRUG CRAVING scores of experimental group in posttest and Follow-up (p<0.05).Conclusion: This study revealed that Mindfulness- Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) program as modern psychotherapy technique is effective method to reduce DRUG CRAVING.
