Combining the latest post-COVID-19 pandemic insights and research from the field with experiential teaching and learning methods, Counseling Clients with Substance Use Disorders and/or Problematic Behaviors (known as Addictions Counseling Today in its first edition) immerses readers in both the theory and practice of substance use counseling today. The second edition of this text is chock-full of practical class and individual exercises, roleplay scenarios, as well as discussions on working with diverse populations.

Author Kevin G. Alderson divides the text into four distinct parts (Part I: General Treatment Considerations; Part II: DSM-5-TR Substance Use and Addictive Disorders; Part III: Summary and Conclusions; and Part IV: Tobacco Use Disorder and Problematic Behaviors), covering the best-known problematic behaviors in separate chapters. Part IV, consisting of eight chapters on everything from problematic internet-related behaviors to problematic work behaviors, is available online for students and adopting instructors. He also incorporates the Entry-Level Specialized Practice Areas criteria for substance use counseling from the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP, 2024) and the standards for accreditation of substance use counseling programs by the National Addiction Studies Accreditation Commission (NASAC, 2022).

This textbook is recommended for counseling, counseling psychology, and social work students at various academic levels, from associate to doctoral studies. It's also an ideal resource for practicing counselors dealing with SUDs and problematic behaviors.
