Relapse Prevention Therapy Workbook: Identifying Early Warning Sign Related to Personality and Lifestyle Problems

This Relapse Prevention Therapy Workbook is designed for people in recovery from alcohol or other drug addiction who have a history of relapse, or fear they might relapse. Confusion and misunderstanding continue to exist about what relapse is and how it happens. In this workbook, Terry Gorski and Steve Grinstead clarify their definition of relapse, how it happens, and most importantly how to prevent a person from entering the relapse cycle.

For several years, Gorski and Grinstead have been co-teaching, modifying the process, and field testing all exercises in this newly revised, simplified, and updated version of Relapse Prevention Therapy. If people are willing to be open and honest and to complete each of the 14 developmental exercises in this new workbook, they may never have to experience the pain of relapse again.
