This ambitious resource describes innovative intervention programs
for treating substance abuse and other mental health problems in
the Middle East in the context of larger issues in the region.
Deftly combining clinical acumen with in-depth knowledge of
sociopolitical currents, contributors present data and analysis on
similarities and differences within the region, addiction issues in
special populations (youth, mothers, immigrants), and the efficacy
of local and international initiatives. New trends in
evidence-based responses, including mental health services in war
and disaster, are related to the larger goals of promoting peace.
To that end, the editors go beyond the concept of shared problems
to discuss strategies toward shared solutions, most notably
psychological first aid as a healing approach to mediation. Among
the topics covered: Drug abuse in the Middle East: promoting mutual
interests through resistance and resilience. Toward uniform data
collection and monitoring of Israeli and Palestinian adolescent
drug use. Substance abusing mothers: toward an understanding of
parenting and risk behavior. Immigration, acculturation, and drug
use. Psychological first aid: a tool for mitigating conflict in the
Middle East. Collaborative approaches to addressing mental health
and addiction. For health psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical
social workers, and addiction counselors, Mental Health and
Addiction Care in the Middle East demonstrates the deep potential
for mental health and social issues to be addressed to benefit all
communities involved.
