Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using Family Behavior Therapy: A Step-by-Step Approach

"I am delighted with the book Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using Family Behavior Therapy. As a relatively new therapist, I used the FBT protocols in a practice setting and the highly structured interventions provided me a sense of confidence while developing professional competence in working with very challenging populations. Although simple in theory, families are empowered by these absolutely positive techniques."

"I strongly recommend Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using Family Behavior Therapy. Donohue and Allen give readers a step-by-step approach using empirical strategies, client-therapist dialogues, checklists, and handouts that make the therapy process clear and concrete. This book is a must read for all who want use FBT in their practice."
