Here's what clinicians are saying about the SECOND Outside-the-Box Recovery Workbook!"I run an outpatient group that ranges from emerging adults to Silver Sneakers, and it doesn't matter the age group: When they see an OTB-Recovery Workbook, they know they're going to learn something cool! I have a dual diagnosis group, and even those without primary substance abuse disorders learn something every time we use a lesson from OTB. Recovery from any disorder is tough work, and the whimsical artwork and intriguing lessons add some levity to difficult subject matters. The funny/quirky way Rosenthal approaches lessons really resonates with my clients." - MIKE DALTON, MA, LAC"I adore Dr. Kim's approach with humor and pictures, and the information is very thorough. She asks questions to get clients thinking about their lives and choices." - CHARLOTTE PRATHER, SUDC"I love the concept of this book. I'm able to photocopy worksheet pages for my clients then provide them with coloring pencils to use in conjunction with the work in the handout. This is a great and valuable resource!"- LISA ACKLAND, LLMSW, DP-CAADC"I absolutely love OTB! I have handed out worksheets as individual assignments for someone to work on if they are struggling in a certain area. They grab my clients' interest immediately, and their laughter breaks down walls." - KARIN KAUFMANN, ARS, ACIT, CAPRC-IIWritten for drug & alcohol counselors and people in early recovery, the SECOND Outside-the-Box Recovery Workbook fills a growing need for evidence-based treatment manuals that embrace creativity and fun.
