Once an alcoholic overcomes denial and stops drinking, the long and difficult process of remaining sober still lies ahead. Long-term recovery needs to go far beyond simple sobriety to succeed; to fully recover, an addict must confront his or her underlying problems.

In this ground-breaking book, Michael Clemmens offers a new method of treatment and outlines an ingenious model for long-term alcoholic recovery, in which pastoral care can play a crucial part. Clemmens' approach leads to a change in the behavior within the individual, while sustaining connection with others. By providing clear guidelines and a new model for treatment, Getting Beyond Sobriety will be of great use to everyone in the field.
