The mental health workbook, Discovering Life and Liberty in the Pursuit of Happiness, is used in all treatment settings, including substance abuse offices, mental health centers, day treatment programs, intensive outpatient, residential psychiatric hospitals, educational settings, private practice, and in a variety of criminal justice settings.
