Reviews"This book is an important addition to the growing literature on harm reduction-informed treatment. Following the principles, techniques, and spirit of motivational interviewing (MI), Dempsy helps people develop self-compassion, self-knowledge, and smart and clear goals to reduce drug-related harm. Numerous journal-like exercises help readers stay focused and build to a commitment to change--or not to." --Patt Denning, PhD , cofounder and former director of clinical services and training at the Harm Reduction Therapy Center; and coauthor of Practicing Harm Reduction Psychotherapy, " The Harm Reduction Workbook for Addiction is a clearly written, eminently practical guide to help anyone struggling with substance use issues to find a starting place to make progress in change. It offers accessible 'self-help' tools in every chapter so that readers can work by themselves, or use the workbook as a supplement to more formal treatment. I highly recommend Dempsey's excellent work, whether for individuals or treatment providers." --Kenneth Minkoff, MD , community and addiction psychiatrist; VP of ZiaPartners in Tucson, AZ; and international expert in integrated recovery-oriented services for people with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, "Change can be difficult, particularly when it comes to substance use. This workbook offers you a way forward that is personalized to your life, your experience, and your history. Rather than one-size-fits-all messaging or harsh judgments meant to shame you to change, you can apply this flexible and practical workbook to navigate the challenges you will encounter along your journey toward health and fulfillment." --Sebastian G. Kaplan, PhD , associate professor at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine, cohost of the Talking To Change podcast, and coauthor of Motivational Interviewing in Schools, "What a gem! Kristin Dempsey has served up a compassionate, safe, and thoughtful place for deeply exploring our relationship with substances--and ourselves. If you are someone who feels alone, doesn't like being told what to do, thinks about your own reasons and abilities for how you want to live your life, or if you simply relish the space and time to think for yourself, this is the resource for you!" --Ali Hall, JD , owner of Ali Hall Training and Consulting; member of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT); and MINT-certified trainer, "Kristin Dempsey's workbook radiates hope for individuals grappling with substance use challenges. Through a compassionate harm reduction lens, this guide offers tangible strategies, inspiring not only recovery but also growth. Illuminating the path of self-discovery, it's a beacon of optimism and empowerment, essential for individuals and caregivers alike seeking a brighter, more fulfilling journey of healing." --Christie Cline, MD, MBA , CEO at ZiaPartners, Inc.; and past psychiatric medical director for the State of New Mexico Department of Health, Behavioral Health Services Division, "As someone dedicated to supporting recovery, I enthusiastically endorse Kristin Dempsey's The Harm Reduction Workbook for Addiction . This book is invaluable for individuals seeking recovery and clinicians searching for effective tools to guide their clients." --Suzzette Garcia , licensed therapist, addiction counseling specialist, and past president of the California Association for Licensed Professional Clinical Counselors, "If you are wondering how to change your relationship with substances, this book is for you. This simple-to-follow guide invites you to explore and understand what works best for you, and supports you to decide when you are ready to do things differently. With the science of self-change, this book has a loving heart." --Glenn Hinds, BA(Hons), DipSW , independent training consultant, counselor, and cohost of the Talking To Change podcast
