Straight Talk about Addiction Treatment Recovery and Achieving a Better Quality of Life by Jerome F. X. Carroll Ph.D. Book PDF Summary
In a straightforward and easy–to–understand manner, Dr. Carroll describes what a new patient likely will experience when entering a comprehensive inpatient or outpatient Substance Use Disorder treatment program and what services s/he ideally should receive. Dr. Carroll also provides his perspective on how addiction develops, what addiction treatment should entail, the causes of relapses, and his approach to helping his patients achieve a meaningful recovery and enhanced quality of life. His perspective is based on forty–seven years of experience working in the field of addiction – as a service provider, administrator, program developer, executive, researcher, trainer, and consultant.
