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. Kirk Bowden PhDChair of the
Rio Salado College Addiction and Substance Use Disorder Program
Professor-in-Charge of the Ottawa University Addiction Counseling
Program Past president of NAADAC, The Association of Addiction
Professionals Past president of the International Coalition for
Addiction Studies EducationA 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.Joan E. Standora, PhD,
Lic. Clinical & Drug Cnslr. (NJ); Lic.Alcohol & Drug Cnslr. (CT);
CASAC-Adv. (NY); CADC (PA); MACThe 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.
