Author of AP's bestselling "Therapist's Guide to Clinical
Intervention" now turns her attention to substance abuse
intervention. The book will follow a similar format to her previous
book, presenting information in easy to read outline form, with
relevant forms, patient questionnaires, checklists, business
documents, etc.
Part I discusses the social impact of substance abuse and provides
a general overview of the physiological and psychological
characteristics of abuse, DSM IV definition of abuse, and
classifications of the varying types of drugs. Part II is the main
section of the book and covers assessment, different stages of
abuse/recovery, and treatment choices. Coverage includes the
discussion of myriad self help choices (e.g. AA), group therapy,
brief therapy, and more. Discussion will also include making a
determination of treatment as inpatient or outpatient, and issues
relevant to special populations (teenagers, geriatrics, comorbidity
patients, etc.). Part III presents skill building resources. Part
IV covers prevention, quality assurance, and also includes a
glossary.
