Help clients pivot away from the question “Am I an alcoholic?” and consider instead “Would my life be better without alcohol?”



Amanda White, mental health clinician, creator of the popular Instagram account @therapyforwomen, and author of the best-selling book Not Drinking Tonight, is back with this must-have resource for her professional peers: Not Drinking Tonight: The Workbook. Having been sober for 8+ years herself, Amanda tackles therapists’ most pressing question: How can I help clients whose alcohol use has become problematic but who don’t identify as “alcoholics” or have no interest in traditional abstinence-based methods that involve going to rehab or attending 12-step groups?



Using a harm reduction approach, each chapter contains worksheets and exercises that will help clients examine why they drink and allow them to change their relationship with alcohol as they learn to:

• Regulate their emotions without alcohol
• Set and maintain healthy boundaries
• Redefine what authentic self-care looks like
• Navigate sober socializing, dating, and sex
• Create a relapse prevention plan
• Build a sober life they love
• And more!
