This accessible guide offers a much-needed integration of family
therapy into the treatment of substance use disorders. By proposing
a means by which family therapy can be moved to the forefront of
addiction treatment, it places the family perspective at the center
of its approach and provides a multifaceted alternative to the
prevalent individual-focused model. Drawing from Bowen Family
Systems Theory and the principles of the 12 step program, the book
presents a model of integration that addresses the needs of
families struggling with addiction. Illustrated with discussion
questions and case narratives of former addicts, the text guides
both practitioners and families towards a goal of creating an
environment that supports recovery. Offering an overview of the
history and current models of addiction treatment, chapters also
outline a 6 week Family Matters Program, with accompanying
treatment interventions and case studies. The book concludes with
an examination of how this program can be implemented by
practitioners in a variety of clinical settings. Family Therapy and
the Treatment of Substance Use Disorders is essential reading for
anyone with an interest in understanding the diverse ways in which
addiction affects families. It will be particularly relevant to
students of family therapy, but clinicians who work across the
fields of substance abuse treatment or family counseling will also
benefit from reading this book.
