Write a research paper about either group treatment or family treatment.Support your argument with research from the textbook and at least two additional academic sources.
This module focuses on treatment modalities, specifically group treatment or family treatment. In this module, you will learn about the utilization of group counseling with a client. The module also gives a systematic view of working with substance-abuse clients. To facilitate lasting changes, it seems necessary to therapeutically engage not only the individual but also the existing systems in which the individual exists. A successful substance-abuse counselor needs to help the individual develop new, supportive systems outside the context of the client’s drug-related social system.
