Deakin U wants people who would like to cut back on the grog to trial an app. Billed as a “pocket therapist” it provides, “psychological training that acts directly on automatic decision-making to change problematic drinking behaviour” and “helps users practice a method of replacing problematic habits with healthier ones.” Apparently, the app uses therapy strategies that work with smoking, eating and exercising.
