Counselling a Recovering Drug User: A

A new title in the Living Therapy Series. "This book is well timed and critically needed because it is a unique focus specifically working with the individual drug abuser which is written within the Carl Rogers' person-centered approach. This book is matchless and deeply insightful. Bryant-Jefferies offers critical wisdom from his many years of counseling persons with substance abuse problems and brings into the text the guidance and skill of an experienced supervisor. No doubt this book will remain a reference for a long time to come for all of us working in the field of counseling persons with drug abuse problems." Dana Murphy Parker, Professor of Nursing, Arizona Western College, Board of Directors, The International Nurses Society on Addictions, in her Foreword.
