Author's advice: Get the Skills Illustration Video + book, September 26, 2004
This review is from: Overcoming Addictions: Skills Training for People with Schizophrenia (Paperback)
Note from the Authors:
The book is most effective when used in tandem with a video we produced. The book is for the therapist; the video is for you to show to your clients. In realistic settings, actors clearly demonstrate the skills taught during the skills training sessions. For example, one scene shows how to refuse drugs offered by a friend. Another shows how to discuss a relapse with a support person. Use the video to help clients visualize the skill before they begin to practice it themselves.
The Overcoming Addictions Skills Illustration Video is available from: W. W. Norton and Company at WWNorton.com
At WWNorton.com, click "Search Our Site," then type: Overcoming Addictions (don't use quotations).
You should get several links including the one for the video. The VHS version looks like this:

This has greatly improved my understanding and practice of providing psychotherapy and case management services to those individuals who suffer from severe and persistent mental illness. I definitely recommend it.
