SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy in the Treatment of Addiction is a treatment manual that can be used by clinicians who have little experience of CBT, for treating their clients. The first two chapters explain how the manual can be used and review the evidence base for CBT as a psychological intervention. Chapter 3 introduces CBT techniques, Chapter 4 outlines assessment and case formulation and Chapter 5 suggests ways of setting up and structuring clinical sessions. Chapter 6 examines core topics such as problem solving and lifestyle changes, while Chapter 7 looks at elective topics such as anger and impulse control and relationship problems. The appendices include therapy worksheets, the daily thought record and drug refusal strategies.
