Substance Abuse and Addiction Treatment: Practical Application of Counseling Theory examines substance abuse and addiction counseling through the lens of major counseling theories. It provides descriptions of counseling theory in action and demonstrates the application of various theories in real-world contexts. Part I of the text reviews essential information related to substance addiction treatment, including the models of addiction, ethical issues, assessment, and diagnosis. In Parts II and III, each chapter introduces a major counseling theory, applies the theory to substance abuse counseling, and reviews its strengths, limitations, and ethical issues. Readers develop a solid knowledge base of substance abuse and addiction counseling, learn how to effectively intervene during sessions with clients, and learn how to create and implement plans in support of those struggling with addiction. The second edition features new research on the correlation between neuroscience and addiction, as well as updates throughout the text to align with the DSM-5. It includes fresh information on motivational interviewing - including updated terminology - and an expanded discussion of cognitive-behavior therapy models, and theoretical integration.

Easy to read, compassionate, and essential, Substance Abuse and Addiction Treatment is an ideal guide for courses in substance abuse and addiction counseling.

All across the United States, individuals, families, communities, and health care systems are struggling to cope with substance use, misuse, and substance use disorders. Substance misuse and substance use disorders have devastating effects, disrupt the future plans of too many young people, and all too often, end lives prematurely and tragically. Substance misuse is a major public health challenge and a priority for our nation to address. The effects of substance use are cumulative and costly for our society, placing burdens on workplaces, the health care system, families, states, and communities. The Report discusses opportunities to bring substance use disorder treatment and mainstream health care systems into alignment so that they can address a person's overall health, rather than a substance misuse or a physical health condition alone or in isolation. It also provides suggestions and recommendations for action that everyone-individuals, families, community leaders, law enforcement, health care professionals, policymakers, and researchers-can take to prevent substance misuse and reduce its consequences.
