The Unified Transdiagnostic Model (MUT)
Un tratamiento basado en la evidencia y ajustado a tu caso, no un protocolo de talla única, para trabajar la adicción y lo que suele venir con ella, a tu ritmo y con supervisión clínica continuada.
Licensed healthcare professionals. Our priority is your recovery, not how long you remain in treatment.
La adicción es un trastorno crónico y tratable que afecta al funcionamiento del cerebro, no una falta de voluntad. Con frecuencia aparece junto a otras dificultades: ansiedad, un duelo, años sin poder parar. Eso también lo tratamos.
Lo propio del MUT es la forma de integrar y personalizar tratamientos con respaldo científico.
What is MUT?
The Unified Transdiagnostic Model (MUT) es el marco de trabajo con el que tratamos las adicciones en UniAdic. Consiste en integrate and customize de forma rigurosa tratamientos que cuentan con respaldo científico, dentro de un proceso coherente y con seguimiento clínico continuado.
Partimos de lo que la investigación actual sostiene: la adicción es un trastorno que afecta al funcionamiento del cerebro —en particular al sistema de recompensa y al control de los impulsos—, no un problema de voluntad ni una cuestión «meramente individual». Eso no significa que no se pueda cambiar: la investigación describe que, con tratamiento e implicación, ese funcionamiento puede ir recuperándose, aunque el ritmo varía en cada persona. Por eso la abordamos desde un enfoque biopsychosocial and in line with the recommendations of the NIDA.

The Stages of Treatment
We organize the process into phases tailored to each person's pace and needs. The underlying logic is the same for all addictions: only the starting point changes.
Meaningful You start with the detoxification; without substance (games, shopping, screens…), where there is nothing to eliminate from the body, one begins with the Behavioral stabilization and management. De ahí en adelante, el camino es el mismo. La modalidad se decide tras la initial medical evaluation, según la sustancia, el patrón de consumo y el estado de salud: el tratamiento es ambulatorio en la mayoría de los casos y, cuando se valora necesario un ingreso, se coordina la derivación al recurso adecuado.
Starting point
Substance Addictions — Supervised Detoxification: acompañamos la eliminación de la sustancia del organismo en las condiciones de seguridad que cada caso requiere, siempre con preliminary medical evaluation y seguimiento clínico. Durante la fase de abstinencia se procura el mayor confort posible y no la atraviesas en solitario. Cuando la retirada puede entrañar riesgo (por ejemplo, en alcohol or benzodiazepines), the safest device is assessed on a case-by-case basis, and, if indicated, the bypass the appropriate treatment; pharmacological support is prescribed and monitored by a doctor.
No Substance — Assessment and Stabilization: interrupt or manage the behavior, reduce exposure and access (stimulus control, self-exclusions, limits, environmental support), and assess risks.
Unlearning and Relearning
Allow time for the sistema de recompensa se vaya recuperando, modificar hábitos, afrontar el craving y aprender nuevas formas de regulación emocional. Aquí se aborda también la dual diagnosis (la ansiedad o la depresión que acompañan a la adicción) cuando existe. Suele ser la etapa más larga y exigente, y el acompañamiento clínico continuado ayuda a sostenerla.
Relapse Prevention and Maintenance
Consolidate the changes, identify warning signs and risky situations, and rebuild a stable life plan. A relapse is not a failure, nor does it mean starting over from scratch: it is a situation we know how to navigate, and from which we learn so we can continue moving forward with more resources.
Treatments that support it
Dentro del Modelo Unificado Transdiagnóstico (MUT) integramos intervenciones con respaldo científico, coordinadas en un mismo plan y adaptadas a cada persona.
Biopsychosocial approach
Addiction has biological, psychological, and social components, and it is treated on all three levels simultaneously.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Identify and change thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that perpetuate the problem; practice coping skills.
Motivational Interviewing and Stages of Change
Ajustan la intervención a tu momento vital y refuerzan tu implicación en el proceso de cambio.
Relapse Prevention
Anticipate risky situations and warning signs, and practice responses to sustain change over time.
Addressing Dual Diagnosis
It addresses both addiction and the disorders that often accompany it—anxiety, depression, trauma, among others—because one feeds the other.
Psychopharmacology: When the Doctor Prescribes It
Individualized pharmacological treatment, prescribed and monitored by a physician, integrated with psychotherapy and never used as a substitute for it.

How We Customize It
Each person receives a Individualized Treatment Plan (ITP), in which the individual plays an active role in their recovery, with goals tailored to their situation—ranging from reducing use or certain behaviors to breaking the habit or achieving abstinence—.
We tailor the intervention to your motivational moment (Prochaska and DiClemente’s stages of change model), because it’s not the same to start when someone is still hesitant as it is when they’ve already decided to change. And if You've already tried that before —whether on its own or as part of another resource—that doesn't work against you: it's valuable information about what you need, and it's part of the starting point. Most treatments are outpatient clinics and from individual psychotherapy.
En qué consiste el Modelo Unificado Transdiagnóstico (MUT). Its value lies in integrate and customize tratamientos ya validados dentro de un mismo plan.
— Cada proceso es distinto: no ofrecemos plazos cerrados; el ritmo lo marca la evolución de cada persona.
— Clear priority: your recovery, not your continued participation in treatment.
— We work with licensed healthcare professionals, based on respect and transparency.
