    Avec ou sans substance les addictions sont un enjeu de santé publique majeur. Notre style de vie change, et nos comportements aussi. De nouvelles substances voient le jour et de nouveaux comportements peuvent devenir addictifs. La recherche scientifique continue à développer la prévention et la thérapie de ces comportement répétitifs et difficiles à contrôler.Les thérapies comportementales et cognitives (TCC) s’inscrivent dans cette démarche scientifique et proposent des prises en charge validées et efficaces en matière de sevrage et de réduction de la consommation. Des approches plus récentes comme l’ACT et la pleine conscience sont également intégrées et montrent toute leur pertinence pour motiver le patient vers des comportements valorisés et antagonistes à ceux de la dépendance.Rédigée par une équipe de chercheurs expérimentés et de cliniciens chevronnés, cette deuxième édition aborde les addictions avec et sans substance selon une perspective bio-psycho-sociale. L’ouvrage met en évidence les points communs des différentes addictions, comme la motivation, le craving et la perte de contrôle, mais il les aborde également dans leur diversité : médicaments, alcool, opiacés, cannabis, tabac, achat pathologique, sexualité compulsive, daydreaming, jeu pathologique, jeu vidéo… Les auteurs proposent les principes pratiques et spécifiques de la prise en charge pour chaque addiction, dans un setting individuel, familial ou de groupe.Le lecteur y trouvera également une réflexion sur les grandes questions théoriques en rapport avec les addictions : quel est le poids des facteurs socio-démographiques... des événements de vie traumatiques, de la culture et des traits de personnalité dans le développement et le maintien de l’addiction ? Comment adapter la prise en charge en fonction de ces variables ?L’ouvrage s’appuie sur des cas concrets, des vignettes cliniques et des protocoles validés scientifiquement, afin d’enrichir rapidement une pratique en addictologie et de guider les praticiens dans la prise en charge de leurs patients.Pierluigi Graziani est psychologue clinicien, psychothérapeute TCC, Professeur des Universités en Psychologie clinique et Psychopathologie, université de Nîmes et Aix-Marseille université et président de l’AFTCC.Lucia Romo est psychologue, psychothérapeute TCC, Professeur des Universités en Psychologie clinique, université de Paris Nanterre ; coresponsable du laboratoire Evaclipsy (UR Clipsyd).
