How to Heal the Loneliness and Shame That Trigger Addictive Behaviors
Heal the pain at the root of your addiction with this comprehensive, evidence-based workbook.

Addiction is often triggered by loneliness, trauma, or loss, yet many traditional treatments fail to uncover the root cause, and focus instead on managing addictive behaviors-with varying degrees of success. Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) provides readers with the tools they need to heal the emotional pain and isolation that addiction desperately attempts to soothe. Readers will also learn essential skills for building a sense of belonging and safety with the ones they love-so they can lean into community and connection instead of drugs and alcohol.
