Description
Book SynopsisAddressing substance abuse treatment for youths and adults, this volume helps busy practitioners by providing the how-to and what now rather than using the typical academic approach.
Trade Review"The authors present a practitioner-based how-to guide for implementing interventions in substance abuse treatment for youth and adults that reserves the evidence base for appendixes and utilizes the chapters themselves for step-by-step instruction." (
