  • Clinical curriculum for treatment of compulsive/addictive disorders based on a freedom to change approach
    Publication number: 20050137466
    Abstract: A method for treating compulsive/addictive disorders and particularly drug and alcohol abuse comprises a reason to change, a method to change, and a freedom to change component. The method particularly teaches the client that he or she is free to change by addressing belief structures that may restrict a belief in an ability to change, by training the client that many types of behavior are unthinking and automatic, and by training the client to reinforce the belief that they are free to change through a daily freedom to change routine.
