Trust the Process book and workbook is for people frustrated by lack of tools for Recovery Enhancement programs. They report new feelings of hope and the loss of guilt after reading the book and completing the exercises. The book is illustrated to help people understand the concepts easier.Every person who has addiction issues and/or unresolved life trauma can benefit from this revolutionary new approach to relapse prevention.Until recently, the treatment standard has been to wait for an actual "wet" relapse, then put the person into primary treatment again and again. Ask yourself, if primary treatment has not prevented relapse one, two, three or more times, why do it again? Instead look at an approach proven to be effective. People using the Recovery Enhancement Program show an 83% abstinence rate after two years. The national average is 16% (statistics taken from study).Clearly explained, concrete exercises keep it simple so you don't waste valuable time figuring out how to do the work. The program complements your 12-Step work. Think of the 12-Steps as the foundation of recovery and the Recovery Enhancement Program as the mansion built on that foundation.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
A request for feedback from those who had read the book elicited the following comments . . .
"It (Trust the Process) is an outstanding book for relapse prevention. I can see you have thoroughly implemented the CENAPS mode of Relapse Prevention into the very core of your being. As a result, you have added value to the original concepts. I believe this book is a contribution to the field you should be proud of." Terence Gorski M.A.
"Trust the Process takes the best of Gorski's work and streamlines it into a powerful process leading to healing. This book is the format for the essence of relapse prevention and should be the core of any aftercare program." James Karras, Counselor
"A few years ago, I relapsed after emergency surgery. I wish I had access to Trust the Process then, but even now as I read it, it helps remove the shame. It also helped me find the underlying issues that led to my relapse." Kimberlee --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From the Author
The Betty Ford Center chose to use my book, Trust the Process as the basis for their first-ever separate relapse prevention program - The Intensive Outpatient Program for Relapse Prevention. I was proud to lead a group of their staff through a workshop to help them in setting up the program. The comments were universally positive. For example, one person said, " this was the most astoundingly effective treatment experience of my life! No one should miss this."

Very helpful book - practical and insightful,
By A Customer
This review is from: Trust the Process: How to Prevent Relapse and Enhance Recovery (Paperback)
This book is written by one who knows what it's like to suffer through the devastation of a relapse after "working a program". The author speaks about her own experience which led her to explore ways to help others and in the process of reading about this, I felt as if she was speaking one on one to me. Although non-judgmental, both the book and the accompanying workbook require a commitment to work which, as the author knows, most addicts/alcoholics are willing to do to end the relapse cycle which is so painful to them. It takes the mystery out of why those who try fail, the stigma out of admitting that you need to look at what is missing in your recovery program and , even better, does it all with a great deal of empathy. Tough love with a smile. Thanks for a great book.
