About the Book

This book is based on the authors' more than two decades of research, which has established that problem drinkers people who have identifiable life difficulties because of their drinking, but who, unlike alcoholics, are not severely dependent on alcohol can often work through their own difficulties with alcohol if sufficiently motivated and supervised. The book outlines an effective program that gives clients a structure for evaluating and understanding their drinking problem, choosing their treatment goals, and deciding exactly how they will change their behavior in order to help themselves. Illustrated with numerous case examples, this unusually ractical text also features handouts that can be photocopied for clients. This book is suitable for professionals treating people with alcohol problems, as well as researchers and students in mental health. Also serves as a text in advanced undergraduate and graduate-level courses in addictions counseling and treatment.

Review :
"Overall, this is an excellent volume that should be part of the library of any clinician whose practice includes persons with drinking problems." - Child and Family Behavior Therapy 18:2 "The Sobells have neatly tied theory and practices into a guidebook others in the addictions field are praising for its freshness and professionalism." - Addictions News for Professionals "The Sobells are preeminent in the addiction treatment field. This engaging book presents the evidence behind their innovative group treatment approach and synthesizes decades of research and clinical experience. Readers will find a wealth of clinical examples, practical advice, handouts, and tools to measure client progress. The Sobells show how leading a group is like conducting an orchestra, and provide wise insights into 'making the music come from the group.'" - Mary Marden Velasquez, Director, Health Behavior Research and Training Institute, University of Texas at Austin, USA
