Praise for Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using Family
Behavior Therapy
‘Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using Family Behavior
Therapy is a welcome addition to the evidence-based substance
use disorder treatment literature. This volume provides a large
amount of helpful information, materials, and step-by-step
instructions for implementing and troubleshooting family-based
behavioral treatment for substance use problems.’
–Mark B. Sobell, Ph D, ABPP, Professor, and Linda
Sobell, Ph D, ABPP, Professor and Associate Director of Clinical
Training, Center for Psychological Studies, Nova Southeastern
University, Fort Lauderdale-Davie, FL
‘I strongly recommend Treating Adult Substance Abuse Using
Family Behavior Therapy. Donohue and Allen give readers a
step-by-step approach using empirical strategies,
client-therapist dialogues, checklists, and handouts that
make the therapy process clear and concrete. This book is a
must-read for all who want to use FBT in their practice.’
–Robert J. Meyers, Ph D, Emeritus Associate Research
Professor of Psychology, University of New Mexico
‘I am delighted with the book Treating Adult Substance Abuse
Using Family Behavior Therapy. As a relatively new therapist, I
used the FBT protocols in a practice setting and the highly
structured interventions provided me a sense of confidence while
developing professional competence in working with very challenging
populations. Although simple in theory, families are empowered by
these absolutely positive techniques.’
–Amy S. Bizjak, Staff Development Training
Coordinator, Bethesda Children’s Home, Meadville, PA
Practical, step-by-step guidance for using Family Behavior

can be implemented in a flexible, straightforward manner and
covers:
* The underlying framework and infrastructure necessary for
treatment providers to effectively implement FBT
* Strategies for establishing effective consumer-driven treatment
plans with clients prior to each session
* Skills training and exercises that teach conflict management and
how to build healthy relationships
* Standardized methods for managing problems that coexist with
substance abuse, such as unemployment, depression, and
incarceration

other practical materials, this hands-on behavioral approach to
therapy equips all mental health professionals with effective
