Description
Book SynopsisThe second edition of Making Mandated Addiction Treatment Work integrates cutting edge research with evidence-based addiction treatments to create a unified and effective treatment model for mental health professionals and those in training. Because the largest and fastest growing segment of the community-based addiction treatment population includes those who are mandated, Barbara C. Wallace provides insightful best practices for tailoring addiction treatment to diverse and challenging clients, including those who may have a history of trauma or mental disorders, different levels of motivation, and a high risk of relapse. Applicable in a variety of treatment settings in both urban and rural communities, this text weaves together new research and vivid case studies into a concise and practical resource. This book is ideal for practitioners and students of public health, criminal justice, and social welfare services.
Trade ReviewThis is a great resource for early professional providers to individuals within this population as the statistics and facts integrated throughout illustrate disparities, considerations, and compassion. Wallace de-stigmatizes the individuals within this population by taking and affirming the view that these are individuals with different need. Thus, different paths of treatment, recovery, and therapy need to be considered, much like what we do with other types of issues. -- Serena Wadhwa, Psy.D, LCPC, associate professor, Addictions Studies and Behavioral Health, and program director, Addictions Counseling Concentration, Governors State University
