Co-developed by Dr. Jon Carlson (creator of the highly successful and award-winning video series Psychotherapy with the Experts and Family Therapy with the Experts) and Dr. Judy Lewis (2000-2001 President of the American Counseling Association), this video series fills an important need in the field of addiction counseling. As you know, the advent of managed care has replaced traditional long-term care with brief intervention, and a dependence on lock-step treatment has given way to individualization. These transformations in addiction treatment have created a hunger for the immediate training of providers in every setting. This video series was specifically designed to meet this need - to provide counselors and therapists at all levels with the training necessary to meet the demands of today's changing practice. Each instructional tape features footage from an actual counseling session featuring real clients facilitated by an expert in the field. Approximately 90 minutes in length, each video follows a three-part format of instruction, demonstration, and follow-up discussion. Cognitive therapy helps clients modify the thought patterns and maladaptive beliefs that can lead to troublesome behaviors and reactions. The cognitive therapist works collaboratively with the client to identify and change the thought patterns that relate to addictive behaviors. In this tape, Dr. Liese works with a client whose issues include alcohol abuse, cocaine abuse, and involvement in the criminal justice system.Author: Judy Lewis, Jon Carlson, Bruce S.
