Product Information

This book provides the reader with a systematic and comprehensive approach to substance abuse treatment. It explores new integrations of familiar approaches, introduces innovative theoretical constructs, and describes new practical applications.

Movement through this cycle is driven by failures in self-regulation, and by the time-limited, self-undermining, and only partially effective substitute solution to these failures that drugs provide. In addition, the substance abusing patient's reliance on paranoid processes (splitting, projection, and introjection) are shown to be the cornerstone to continued drug dependence as a substitute for poor self-regulation. In addition to advancing theory, this volume describes in detail a comprehensive system for assessment and treatment planning based on the dual diagnosis paradigm.
