How does a homeless, once employed chef, living in his car become a Doctor of Psychology and Licensed Therapist? By going to AA instead of driving his car off an oceanfront cliff. This book offers an insight into how the 12 step process and societal fellowship combine to provide an individual with many of the benefits that psycho-therapeutic procedures administered by psychologists and mental health clinics do as well. This book was written with the purpose of bridging the gap between psychology and the 12 steps in the hope of increasing treatment success. It was written for therapists who are not substance abusers or in recovery in the hope that it may provide insight into the mind of the alcoholic/addict, while providing a useable lexicon. This book is written for any and all who may have an interest in the world of substance abuse treatment, psycho-therapy, and a few of the other 12 step programs.

Dr. Paul is uniquely positioned as both a psychologist and sober member of Alcoholics Anonymous to lend his perspective to the subject of the inherent psychological truths in the process of taking AA's 12 steps. In honor of the tradition of anonymity, the pseudonym Dr. Paul is being used to protect the AA society. While attending Graduate and Post Graduate studies in Clinical Psychology, Dr. Paul discovered that the AA process and society work together to combine many of the psychotherapeutic modalities used in treatment today. Following over a decade working with alcoholics and addicts in the field, Dr. Paul offers his opinions on how the efficacy of treatment in this population could be increased in the future.
