| Publisher Description: Working in methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) can feel foreign for even the most seasoned substance use professionals because of its nuanced nature and unique subculture. A Quick Start Guide to Methadone Maintenance Counseling is a short and easy-to-read manual written by practicing mental health professionals. This guide adopts a bio-psycho-social-spiritual framework for understanding opioid use disorder, and covers topics like: the theory and phases of MMT, maternal opioid addiction, harm reduction, trauma and chemical dependency, motivational interviewing, working with clients' loved ones, building sober social support and spirituality, nutrition and exercise, and useful resources for treating opioid dependency. |
