Tipsy: A Woman’s Self-Guided Method for Managing Alcohol is not only a book about recovery, it’s a beautiful guide to self-discovery! As a clinical health psychologist, it is refreshing to find a resource that directly explains the unique female experience of substance use issues. In Tipsy, the authors effectively address “the seductive pull of your comfort zone,” “the feminine drinking culture,” and the “willingness to be vulnerable” as women bond over alcohol. No other book so aptly explores the nuances of feminine alcohol use! Inspiring, empowering, yet down to earth—this book is an ESSENTIAL TOOL for both women and any clinician who works in alcohol treatment.

Change Women’s Lives, and nine other books of poetry and prose

In my professional practice, I’ve noticed a concerning trend: an increasing number of women are turning to alcohol more frequently. According to the insights shared in Tipsy, this rise in consumption may be closely related to the numerous pressures and challenges women face in their daily lives. The book provides a comprehensive self-guided method designed to assist women in controlling their drinking habits. This approach could be highly beneficial in preventing both emotional and physical dependence on alcohol, and in helping women avoid the various negative consequences associated with excessive drinking. By addressing the root causes and offering practical strategies, this book has the potential to make a significant positive impact on many women’s lives.
