There is a need within the addiction treatment field to recognize that different people need different methods of recovery.   

Based on academic study and clinical experience, the Positive Path Recovery model is a complementary alternative to Twelve-Step recovery. These two approaches can co-exist as allies in the treatment of substance abuse. This title also includes a survey of theories of other people that have written about addiction treatment. Motivational Interviewing, and the Stages of Change Model also play a major role in Positive Path Recovery.

 

Positive Path Recovery:

  • is a cognitive and behavioral approach to addiction treatment. 
  • includes elements of spiritually based ideas as posed by AA and Transpersonal Psychology. 
  • is designed to respect spirituality as an individual matter. 
  • recognizes that spirituality can help recovery but is not a requirement for recovery from addiction. 

 

This book includes a series of student worksheets to help guide studies which highlight important concepts of Positive Path Recovery.
