Maureen Palmer

September 24th, 2024

Offering a new approach to helping a loved one with a drinking problem, Maureen Palmer moves away from the traditional abstinence-only mindset in her book, You Don’t Have to Quit: 20 Science-Backed Strategies to Help Your Loved One Drink Less (Page Two $21.95). Instead, she advocates for harm reduction and positive change through empathy and compassion. Drawing from her own experience and interviews with world experts, she provides twenty practical, science-backed strategies to reduce or stop drinking, while also maintaining healthy boundaries. Palmer debunks myths that foster shame and conflict, promoting a collaborative approach to improving both relationships with drinkers and their drinking behavior. 9781774584668
