The Harm Reduction Workbook for Addiction: Motivational Interviewing Skills to Create a Personalized Recovery Plan and Make Lasting Change (16pt Large Print Edition)

Change doesn't have to happen overnight-it can happen at your own pace. A powerful alternative to ''abstinence-only'' approaches, the ''harm reduction'' model outlined in this evidence-based workbook draws on practices from motivational interviewing (MI) to help readers explore their relationship with substance abuse, and find the inspiration needed to move forward and create an individualized recovery plan.
