Diagnosis and Treatment of Substance-Related Disorders

"This text provides a "cutting edge" philosophy for those dealing with the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and aftercare of individuals suffering from issues with chemical dependency." "Diagnosis and Treatment of Substance-Related Disorders follows the D.E.C.L.A.R.E. model of treatment - a model in which each letter represents one of the seven bio-psychosocial modalities, or points of entry, for viewing the problems of a dependent client. This model takes the student through every phase of the acronym, which employs a therapeutic approach aimed at facilitating the improvement of drug-abusing behavior." "Throughout the text, the reader is provided with helpful suggestions regarding treatment impasses, assessing strengths and weaknesses, developing a treatment plan, and prioritizing intervention strategies. Transcripts from actual sessions and case vignettes provide rich clinical material to the text."--BOOK JACKET.
