Learn more about what really happens in rehab!

The Work Goes On follows up Welcome to My World and offers another peek into substance abuse counseling as we continue to follow Janet and her team through their week. Meet another set of clients who challenge the team as they struggle to assist clients to make sense of their addiction through counseling groups and personal counseling. Ricardo has a new life change, we learn the back stories for Keisha and Jorge, and the Clinical Director continues to offer his ham-handed advice! The week roles out with the same silliness and poignancy that the first week offered. Join us!

This book is a "must read" for:

People considering entering the addiction field as a counselor

Family members of those in addiction treatment

Current substance abuse treatment staff who will recognize and laugh at themselves, as well as pick up some great psychoeducation material

Over the course of a rapidly unfolding week of treatment, readers will participate in women's groups, clinical staffing, community groups, psychoeducation groups, family groups, and individual and family counseling sessions.

This is the second novel that follows this warm and talented staff, and you will find yourself rooting for them AND their clients as they take on this challenging and deadly disease.
