There is hardly a family in the post-industrial world that hasn't been affected in some way by addiction. Yet seeking treatment for a struggling loved one is, for most people, a frightening and overwhelming prospect. Ending Addiction for Good offers a powerful message of hope. Drawing on their own histories of addiction recovery, authors Taite and Scharff examine the unique and highly successful treatment protocol practiced at the Cliffside Malibu Addiction Treatment Center. Using clear and direct language, they look beyond the limits of conventional treatment to show how creating an individualized, evidence-based, and integrated approach that targets the whole person - mind, body, and spirit - not just the addiction, can provide a sure path to recovery. In doing so, they empower both the addict and the families of addicts to begin their recovery. Ending Addiction for Good may well be the most important book dealing with alcoholism and drug addiction to come along in years.

Cliffside Malibu CEO and founder Richard Taite has lived in the Los Angeles area his entire life. In July of 2005, Richard opened Cliffside Malibu, a boutique eighteen bed facility for men and women. Cliffside Malibu uses treatment methods based on the Stages of Change model, a model of change that worked for Rich's own recovery. It is understanding this change process that has made Cliffside Malibu successful in helping people recover. The treatment center's success rate is so high, it offers a guarantee. All treatment is holistic and highly individualized, based on the the specific needs of each client and given in a supportive, safe, luxurious environment.
