About the Book

In an attempt to reach the personal goals we set for ourselves, we all struggle with the same fundamental concern: how can we make changes last? Based on original research conducted by the author over the past twenty years, Making Changes Last provides a definitive investigation of enduring change. Therapists and change agents, as well as a diverse group of people who have transformed themselves through travel, trauma, self-initiated experiences, or structured therapy, have been interviewed about their most dramatic personal changes and what contributed to making these changes last. Their stories are combined with a comprehensive review of the research on the subjects of treatment maintenance, addictions relapse, permanent learning, and personal change into a comprehensive model for understanding this complex phenomenon. Kottler then offers several practical strategies for constructing an optimal treatment program that will endure over time. Written for helping and leadership professionals, as well as the general public, Making Changes Last will give readers the knowledge and tools they need to understand the mechanisms fo successful, lasting change.

Review :
". . . [T]his book has the potential to be a classic with a shelf life that will sustain. The topic is everlasting and the examples given are universal- this one will stay with us for a long time!" -- Dr. Fred Bemak, Ohio State University "This book is a new and innovative contribution to the field. There is nothing like it and it is a critical issue for professionals who are working. . . to create change. Again, a Kottler first of its kind, moving into new terrain in a creative and engaging manner!" -- Dr. Fred Bemak, Ohio State University "Making Changes Last is a definitive investigation of creating enduring change." -- Horizons
