Substance use disorders typically take years to develop and to
become entrenched. Thus, for users, creating a new and sustainable
drug-free life takes time, intensive effort, and extensive ongoing
support. This book is a clinician-friendly manual for implementing
Reinforcement-Based Treatment (RBT), an intensive, evidence-based
model for treating substance use disorders in community settings.
RBT integrates the most effective behavioral techniques with
motivational interviewing, highly individualized treatment plans,
and case management. The goal is to help clients avoid substance
use triggers and develop recreational outlets and support systems
that are incompatible with substance use. Additionally, the model
emphasizes customer service -- a concept underemphasized in most
programs -- to ensure that clients receive positive reinforcement
for attending treatment. Using a step-by-step approach that takes
the reader through each treatment component, the authors provide
clear, detailed, and practical case illustrations and a variety of
useful forms and therapist scripts. RBT is a comprehensive approach
that can be used with various populations to help clients initiate
abstinence, prevent relapses early in the recovery process, and
maintain sobriety on an ongoing basis. It is therefore an ideal
model for clinicians, administrators, case management
professionals, and others who work with substance abusers.
