Beyond Addiction with Dr. Nicole Kosanke

My guest Dr. Nicole Kosanke is here to talk about the book -  Beyond Addiction: How Science And Kindness Help People Change. 

"Beyond Addiction eschews the theatrics of interventions and tough love to show family and friends (of those with substance abuse problems) how they can use kindness, positive reinforcement, and motivational and behavioral strategies to help their loved ones change. Drawing on forty collective years of research and decades of clinical experience, Beyond Addiction presents the best practical advice science has to offer."

Dr. Nicole Kosanke is director of family services at CMC where she specializes in working with family members of people abusing substances. In 2008 Dr. Kosanke was featured in an O, The Oprah Magazine article about her client's experience in treatment at CMC, which was later published in O's Big Book of Happiness: The Best of O.
