Countless families have a loved one who refuses to acknowledge or seek treatment for a substance abuse problem. Yet until now, concerned family members who have asked for help generally have been told that their only recourse is either detaching from their loved one or conducting a highly confrontational "intervention." Filling a crucial need, this book presents a powerful new alternative: a nonconfrontational, empirically based therapy program oriented to the concerned significant other (CSO) who wants to motivate a family member or partner to enter treatment. Grounded in cutting-edge theory and research, the program can be readily implemented in a range of clinical settings.
