Is your addiction taking control of your life? This well-rounded practical guide offers insights, exercises, and worksheets thoughtfully designed to help you identify triggers, reframe negative thought patterns, and build healthier coping mechanisms to overcome addictive behaviors.
If you struggle with addiction, seeking treatment is a powerful, positive first step toward recovery. But gaining an understanding of the causes of addiction—such as feelings of helplessness or loss of control—is crucial for success. In this book, addiction expert Suzette Glasner-Edwards, PhD offers evidence-based techniques fusing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-based relapse prevention to help you move past addictive behaviors.
This workbook is the first to combine research-proven motivational techniques, CBT, and mindfulness-based strategies to help you create your own unique recovery plan. It can be used on its own or as an adjunct to therapy or rehab. It also makes a wonderful resource for loved ones of those in recovery or those struggling with abuse or addiction.
If you’re ready to take that important first step, this workbook can help you take the steps necessary to overcome addiction and get back to living a full, meaningful life.
