Facing Addiction is the first book to apply Dr. Patrick Carnes' research-based thirty-task model to treating addiction to alcohol and drugs. This model helps therapists and recovering people understand the interaction between trauma and brain science and how these factors play a role in the development of addiction to drugs and alcohol. Facing Addiction distills Dr. Carnes' more than thirty years of research to show addicts how to embrace lasting long-term recovery through a thirty-task model.
