Is it that hard to imagine twelve psychotherapy sessions convincing someone to quit drinking for eight months?

Yes. I've also met former alcoholics, and people who quit for a while then started drinking again. Twelve weeks of therapy leading to eight months of sobriety for 25% of people does not seem surprising.
