Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using Family

Family Behavior Therapy (FBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps adult patients address substance abuse as well as coexisting problem behaviors, including family dysfunction, employment, and mood disorders. Donohue and Allen are the premier researchers and practitioners of FBT, and their book is the first to provide the practical, step-by-step guidance needed to use this cost-effective intervention method with clients. It contains descriptions of each component of the treatment in addition to case examples, worksheets, and handouts. Counselors, therapists, and social workers will appreciate this "how-to" behavioral approach to therapy.

BRAD DONOHUE is a licensed clinical psychologist and Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. He is the director of the Achievement Center, which is focused on the development of evidence-based protocols for use in disadvantaged populations.

DANIEL N. ALLEN is a licensed clinical psychologist and Professor of Psychology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. His research focuses on the neuropsychological correlates of mental illness, including substance use disorders and evidence-based interventions for these disorders.
