"This book provides an introduction for psychologists to screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT), an evidence-based approach to identifying and treating substance use across a variety of behavioral health care settings and client populations. SBIRT has proven to be an efficient, cost effective way to identify harmful substance use and related problems and enhance individuals' motivation to change their behavior. Chapters present overviews of screening tools and approaches to brief intervention appropriate for diverse target populations; concrete steps for implementing SBIRT in a range of practice settings; and recommendations for training, advocacy, and policy. Psychologists who learn and implement SBIRT will be better equipped to meet the needs of their clients and help address the public health problem of substance use in this country. The aim of this book is to attend to psychologists' reluctance to address substance use with their clients. By engaging clients in proactive, open minded conversations on this topic, providers can help lower the rates of harmful substance use"--

"Before I jump into introducing the topics and motivation for this book, I think it is helpful to provide a sense of who I am, personally and professionally, and what perspective I bring because of my own intersectional identities and experiences. I identify as a woman of color, South Asian in my ethnicity and Saint Lucian as my nationality, immigrant, cis-gendered, straight, and able-bodied. I trained in traditional models of cognitive behavioral therapy during my graduate training at Boston University, specializing in anxiety-related disorders and substance use disorders, through additional training in the VA system during practicum and my internship at Brown Alpert Medical School. I have been fortunate to work with clients, therapists, trainees, and colleagues from a wide diversity of backgrounds both nationally and globally within the contexts of psychotherapy provision and clinical training in evidence-based approaches. My research has grown and morphed over time (similar to my cultural awareness and competency as a therapist), originating in traditional experimental and randomized controlled trial work, and landing squarely on my current preferred interests of community-based research that focuses on addressing health disparities for a range of diverse communities using a social justice and cross-cultural lens"--
