10 Steps to Get your Partner Closer to Sobriety
A CRAFT-based guide and workbook for partners of people with addiction
The 10 Steps to Get Your Partner Closer to Sobriety is a comprehensive guide and workbook that walks you through the CRAFT method in a practical, accessible format. Each of the 10 steps builds on the last — taking you from understanding why past efforts haven't worked to having a clear, evidence-based plan to create real change.
Each step is structured in two parts: a teaching section that explains the skill and the science behind it, and a guided worksheet where you apply what you've learned to your specific situation. It's designed to be used at your own pace, giving you tools you can start using right away — even if your partner isn't ready to change.
Outcomes
- Understand why past efforts to help haven't worked
- Gently interrupt denial without causing arguments
- Build a personal plan using proven CRAFT strategies
