- Summary:
- "In this training video, Dr. Reid Hester demonstrates psychotherapy for individuals in recovery. Hester, a leading expert in evidence-based substance abuse treatment, shares his philosophy that all our not-so-healthy addictions and bad habits, including heavy drinking, smoking, overeating, and procrastination, can be changed following the same basic principles. With the help of a live studio audience in various stages of substance abuse recovery, Dr. Hester outlines the four steps of behavioral change, starting with setting reasonable goals for change (including cutting back or the "warm-turkey" approach), self-monitoring to see how deeply ingrained those old habits are, choosing rewards for incremental successes, and finally finding new behaviors to take the place of the old ones. Through discussion, role-playing, and group and individual exercises, you will learn how to help clients achieve long-term changes to stuck habits. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions." Supplied by publisher
