Solutions Step by Step: A Substance Abuse Treatment Manual
A practical guide introducing the solution-focused approach to clinicians working with substance abusers.
Stressing solutions rather than pathology, clients' strengths and their strategies for past successes rather than their weaknesses or problems, this team utilizes a solution-building approach by discovering and exploring the ways substance abusers heal themselves. The book covers solution-focused therapy one step at a time. Bursting with case examples, quick tips, and questions "from the field," this is a reader-friendly manual.

based on the book's age it's not perfect. it doesn't cover some distinctions and questions that other newer SFBT books cover. that being said it is the best SFBT book on substance misuse I have seen and it's format (with boxes for tips and questions from the field) makes this book very useful for what it does cover
