The groundbreaking method that upends current treatment models and
"offers collective hope to families of substance abusers" ("Kirkus
Reviews"), helping loved ones conquer addiction and compulsion
problems through positive reinforcement and kindness--from the
leaders in progressive addiction treatment in the US.
"Beyond Addiction" goes beyond the theatrics of interventions and
tough love to show family and friends how they can use kindness,
positive reinforcement, and motivational and behavioral strategies
to help someone change. Drawing on forty collective years of
research and decades of clinical experience, the authors present
the best practical advice science has to offer.
Delivered with warmth, optimism, and humor, "Beyond Addiction"
defines a new, empowered role for friends and family and a paradigm
shift for the field. This new approach is not only less daunting
for both the substance abuser and his family, but is more effective
as well. Learn how to use the transformative power of relationships
for positive change, guided by exercises and examples. Practice
what really works in therapy and in everyday life, and discover
many different treatment options along with tips for navigating the
system. And have hope: this guide is a life raft for parents,
family, and friends--offering "reminders that although no one can
make another person change, there is much that can be done to make
change seem appealing and possible" ("Publishers Weekly").
