What about partners of alcoholics?

Partner Brief-TSF

Brief-TSF includes intervention with significant others in an alcohol dependents life. Significant others may be family members such as partners of alcoholics, children of alcoholics, adult children of alcoholics, parents of alcoholics, grand parents of alcoholics and work colleagues. These are sometimes known as co-dependents of alcoholism.

Partner Brief-TSF has similar goals and methods to Brief-TSF. The overall goal is referral of the significant other to Al-anon or Alateen. This is achieved by disturbing the denial of enabling behaviors, promotion of selfhood and making contact with an Al-anon peer sponsor.
