Praise for Treating Adolescent Substance Abuse Using Family Behavior Therapy

Henggeler, PhD, Professor, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, and Director, Family Services Research Center, Medical University of South Carolina

"Kudos to Donohue and Azrin for writing a book that includes all the materials needed to implement FBT with adolescents, including prompting checklists, handouts, and worksheets."—Karol Kumpfer, PhD, Professor, Health Promotion & Education, and Chair, International Study Abroad Committee, College of Health, University of Utah, and former director, SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Prevention

Godley, PhD, Director, Research & Development, Chestnut Health Systems

"In my practice with adolescents, FBT has proven exceptionally effective in drawing families closer together and yielding improved outcomes. This remarkably supportive approach helps young people develop critical skills necessary to live a fulfilling and drug-free lifestyle. This book clearly illustrates how to implement the interventions with ease and exemplifies the deeply gratifying experience of FBT."—Stephen A.
