Rate this book
A unique offering of both knowledge and information, this third edition reflects the latest practices and time-tested data. Brooks and McHenry offer relevant case examples that showcase the therapy process as it relates to clients with a substance use disorder and the impact on their families.

 

New approaches and techniques of medication-assisted treatment with opiate addiction, harm reduction, the use of peer recovery specialists and drug courts, and the importance of addressing trauma in the treatment process are thoroughly presented to ensure effective work with clients from intake through recovery. With a look at the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic included, mental health professionals will gain an empathic understanding of the nonlinear process of recovery. A supplemental Instructor’s Guide is available by request from ACA.
