Description
This expanded edition of the successful Graywind title, Managing Your Drug and Alcohol Problem provides an evidence-based treatment protocol for all types of substance use disorders.
Designed to accompany the Overcoming Your Drug or Alcohol Problem client workbook, this guide provides clinicians with valuable strategies for working with substance use disorders by focusing on specific issues involved in both stopping substance abuse and changing behaviors or lifestyle aspects that contribute to continued substance abuse.
In addition to addressing professional approaches/attitudes toward the substance abusing client, assessment, psycho-social and pharmacotherapeutic treatment, and self-help programs, this expanded edition also includes a new chapter on the management of a co-occurring psychiatric disorder.
This book is part of the Treatments that Work Series published by Oxford University Press.
