Rezensionen / Stimmen
Although there are many textbooks designed to teach counseling theories and techniques, most fail to apply these theories and techniques specifically to addiction treatment and recovery. When counselors understand how to correctly apply counseling theories and techniques to addiction treatment and recovery, they become extremely valuable tools in assisting individuals to develop and maintain effective recovery solutions. A Comprehensive Guide to Addiction Theory and Counseling Techniques was specifically designed and written by two of our nation's most outstanding addiction counselor educators. They understand how to teach future addiction professionals and how to apply counseling theories and techniques to addiction treatment and recovery. A Comprehensive Guide to Addiction Theory and Counseling Techniques is an extremely valuable tool for both addiction counseling students and professionals. I highly recommend it.

A Comprehensive Guide to Addiction Theory and Counseling Techniques provides a much-needed overview of major theoretical approaches in the counseling field and, specifically, how these theories may be applied practically to the field of addiction studies. Written in an engaging and accessible way, the book offers both Bachelor's and Master's level students a foundation from which to develop skills and critical thinking as they work through various examples and case studies. I would also consider this book for the Associate's level educator as an appropriate additional resource for students.

The authors have written a comprehensive review of addiction theories and provided case conceptualization examples and student activity suggestions to facilitate better learning and understanding of the application of the theories. The case conceptualizations and activities are valuable in assisting students in gaining an understanding of the different theoretical perspectives and their impact on practitioner's approach to assessment and treatment of clients.
