The Alcoholic Family in Recovery: A Developmental Model
Autor Stephanie Brown, Virginia Lewisen Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 sep 2002
Family relationships change dramatically when one or more members stops drinking. Far from offering a quick fix to family problems, in fact, the first years of sobriety are often marked by continuing tension that fuels marital stress, acting-out kids, and difficulties at work. This book explores the process of recovery from addiction as it affects the entire family, presenting an innovative model for understanding and treating families navigating this difficult period. The authors draw upon extensive clinical and research experience to demonstrate how families can be helped to regroup after abstinence, weather periods of emotional upheaval, and find their way to establishing a more stable, yet flexible, family system.

Recenzii
'This was a very useful text for my beginning and advanced graduate-level students in family therapy and community and school counselling ... For students in clinical practice, the model helped them stay oriented to the tasks of recovery amidst the difficulties of working with families in crisis.' - Karen Caldwell, PhD, Department of Human Development and Psychological Counseling, Appalachian State University
'[The authors] present a well-developed model of alcoholism recovery, refined through their many years of clinical experience with alcoholic families and adult children of alcoholics, and they illustrate its implications for therapeutic strategies with a rich variety of case histories ... This very careful and comprehensive exposition of the developmental model of recovery and its application to clinical situations should be useful and instructive for therapists and clinical students.' - Addiction
'This book has been an excellent resource for my masters-level course on treating substance abuse from a systemic perspective ... Essential reading for all who work or plan to work in the mental health professions.' - Anita Berardi Maher, PhD, Graduate Department of Counseling, George Fox University
'Well organized and clearly written ...The strength of this book lies in the authors' stating early and often their biases and beliefs regarding alcoholism and the path of family recovery ...The fact that they based this book on the findings of a research project and not just their own clinical experience is refreshing ... Brown and Lewis wrote this book with therapists in mind ...They clearly point out the role for therapists and the tasks at each phase of the recovery process.' - Journal of Family Psychotherapy
