Opis

This useful volume offers field-tested techniques for dealing with the most challenging types of addicted clients: hopeless clients, clients considered to be in denial, and those who are in treatment not because they desire it, but because of a mandate from an outside authority. The techniques you will learn in this book avoid generating resistance on the part of the client and are easily integrated into any treatment model. You'll also find case studies, practice worksheets, and suggestions for therapeutic tasks to assign to your clients.Visit the author's website at www.newhopemanor.org.To view an excerpt online, find the book in our QuickSearch catalog at www.HaworthPress.com.
