Help clients pivot away from the question "Am I an alcoholic?" and consider instead "Would my life be better without alcohol?"
Amanda E. White, mental health clinician, creator of the popular Instagram account @therapyforwomen, and author of the best-selling book Not Drinking Tonight, is back with this must-have resource for her professional peers: Not Drinking Tonight: The Workbook. Having been sober for 8+ years herself, Amanda tackles therapists' most pressing question:
How can I help clients whose alcohol use has become problematic but who don't identify as "alcoholics" or have no interest in traditional abstinence-based methods like rehab or 12-step groups?
Using a harm reduction approach, each chapter contains worksheets and exercises that will help clients examine why they drink and allow them to change their relationship with alcohol as they learn to:
¿ Regulate their emotions without alcohol
¿ Set and maintain healthy boundaries
¿ Redefine what authentic self-care looks like
¿ Navigate sober socializing, dating, and sex
¿ Create a relapse prevention plan
¿ Build a sober life they love
¿ And more!
