4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Concepts for Alcoholism treatment, but dry reading!, October 30, 2009
By Jesse R (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Stephanie Brown has excellent theraputic techniques/concepts on how to deal and treat folks suffering from Alcoholism during counselling sessions, and I learned a lot! Ms. Brown's many years of experiences/knowledge are evident on how she statigically deals with denial/relapse within Psychotherapy.
This book deals with an fascinating subject, however, Ms. Brown's writing style is very scientific/academic and dry, and is not for anyone who wants an easy read.
I recommend this book for students studying Psychology or for counselor's who work with clients that have addictions.
