Reviews
Cory Walker, DO Baylor College of Medicine

"Addictions are complex and there are no resources to easily understand what help is available and how to access it...until now. Mr. Capriola's book and workbook make the problem of substance use disorders understandable, in plain language. Parents are provided a clear plan to assess if their adolescent is struggling with substance or process use disorders and how to move forward. I strongly recommend this book and its accompanying workbook to anyone close to adolescents (or adults) who struggle with substance use disorders."

Jennifer Malone, MD
