"The theoretical model or framework you use to think about substance use disorders has a substantial impact on your approach to treatment. While many models exist, psychologists, social workers, and substance abuse counselors are typically trained in only one. This volume provides up-to-date coverage of the major approaches to treating substance abuse. Clinicians learn to 'think outside the box,' gaining helpful new perspectives on how clients' problems may be understood and managed."-- Reid K. Hester, PhD, Director, Research Division, Behavior Therapy Associates LLP, Albuquerque, New Mexico
