Choice Awareness Training (CAT) is an original habit-modification platform that can be clinically utilized with a variety of compulsive spectrum presentations. The book introduces a tri-partite change equation consisting of the following three change variables: freedom-to-change, reason-to-change, and method-to-change. The freedom-to-change construct is conceptually differentiated from the construct of self-efficacy, and is operationalized through Choice Awareness Training. Choice Awareness Training, which involves a combination of Logotherapy and modified Mindfulness training, is introduced as an element of the overall clinical curriculum for substance use and compulsive spectrum clinical presentations. The book reviews a curriculum of discussions and exercises designed to challenge cognitive- behavioral automaticity and freedom-restricting belief schemas that constitute phenomenological barriers to one's perceived freedom-to- change.
