Working Through the D.T.'S (Double Troubles): A Twelve-Step Workbook

This workbook is a guide for using The Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous for people with dual disorders; those who have an addictive disorder and an emotional or mental problem. It is written by Kate Murray Brown who is a retired Licensed Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor in Tenneesee. “After working for 21 years in private practice and in treatment centers, I created this workbook using the same methods and interventions for dual disorders that were helpful then, and continue to be helpful now.” This workbook will help the client, their loved ones, counselors, and friends better understand the dynamics of dual disorders. Each step is written in language that is easy to understand. It addresses addiction and emotional or mental problems simultaneously. Each step has written exercises that clearly explain the meaning of the step and how it applies to the individual. It is written with care, humor, and encouragement.
