Relapse refers to the return to symptomatic behaviors after a period of symptom remission, and is the most widely noted outcome following treatment for psychological and substance abuse disorders. This book describes the best practices and intervention strategies for preventing relapse of major mental and substance-related disorders. It combines the theoretical rationale, empirical data, and the practical "how-to" for intervention programs, with case studies focusing on diverse populations, problem behaviors, and treatment settings. The editors and several chapter authors are affiliated with the University of Washington.
