BEYOND ADDICTION UNDERSTANDINGCB

Autor Edward J. Khantzian
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 2018
In Treating Addiction: Beyond the Pain, Edward Khantzian offers a collection of his recent works on the study and treatment of substance abuse and addiction. Based on his five decades of experience in working with substance dependent individuals, this volume builds upon Khantzian's theory of addiction as self-medication and provides insights into how addiction is rooted in human psychological suffering, and not pleasure seeking or self-destruction. Almost without exception, life histories of human discomfort, disconnection, and unhappiness leave those so burdened to be vulnerable to the appeal of addictive drugs, including alcohol. Khantzian's sensitive teaching voice weaves together an annotated collection of previously published papers into a powerful and engaging volume of effective practice-based treatments. A timely complement to his earlier collection Treating Addiction as a Human Process, this book provides an inclusive and accessible resource for mental health professionals from any background as well as graduate students and those in training.

Descriere

Treating Addiction: Beyond the Pain emphasizes that what is needed to better treat addictive disorders is an empathic understanding of what addictively prone individuals endure that makes addiction so compelling. Khantzian uses evidence from five decades of study and treatment to show effective treatment is based on appreciation of these issues.
