While skillfully fostering the therapeutic alliance, Dr. Brown gently but persistently brings alcohol into the focus of the treatment. This video follows the course of treatment through the four stages of the Developmental Model: Drinking, Transition, Early Recovery, and Ongoing Recovery.

She then leads viewers step by step through the four phases of alcoholism recovery: Drinking, Transition, Early Recovery, Ongoing Recovery, detailing the behavioral, cognitive, and emotional characteristics of the alcoholic at each stage. She defines key tasks that face the therapist and client during each phase, as well as challenges for mental health practitioners and substance abuse professionals in fulfilling these tasks.
