Not Drinking Tonight: The Workbook: A Clinician's Guide to Helping Clients Examine Their Relationship with Alcohol (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781683735519)

Help clients pivot away from the question "Am I an alcoholic?" and consider instead "Would my life be better without alcohol?"

Amanda E. White, mental health clinician, creator of the popular Instagram account @therapyforwomen, and author of the best-selling book Not Drinking Tonight, is back with this must-have resource for her professional peers: Not Drinking Tonight: The Workbook. Having been sober for 8+ years herself, Amanda tackles therapists' most pressing question:

How can I help clients whose alcohol use has become problematic but who don't identify as "alcoholics" or have no interest in traditional abstinence-based methods like rehab or 12-step groups?

Using a harm reduction approach, each chapter contains worksheets and exercises that will help clients examine why they drink and allow them to change their relationship with alcohol as they learn to:

- Regulate their emotions without alcohol

- Set and maintain healthy boundaries

- Redefine what authentic self-care looks like

- Navigate sober socializing, dating, and sex

- Create a relapse prevention plan

- Build a sober life they love

- And more!
