Reiter skillfully blends research, systemic theory, psychobiology, and practical interventions, empowering readers to approach substance abuse in families with clarity, empathy, and evidence-based interventions. Accessible, practical, and profoundly insightful, it equips therapists to address the complex dynamics of addiction on families."
