Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to alcohol addiction and the individualized counseling processes it calls for. Many consider alcoholism to be the third most serious public health problem in the present day, so much of the book deals with how to recognize and diagnose the condition, which often goes unnoticed until its later stages. It also details the many ways alcoholism affects the lives of the addict and those around them, with far-reaching interpersonal, economic, and legal consequences. The author, a psychiatric professional with years of experience in the field, argues that traditional treatment methods often miss the mark because they fail to address the specific psychological makeup of each addict. This book is a compassionate, practical guide to understanding and supporting those struggling with alcohol dependence, offering a deep dive into the mind of the alcoholic and providing useful counseling techniques to help them and their loved ones on the road to recovery. This deep understanding of addiction's psychological underpinnings makes the book's insights invaluable to anyone aiming to help an addict achieve lasting sobriety.
