Synopsis
2026 Expanded Edition
“No matter how desperate the situation, when not a glimmer of light pierces an endless dark tunnel, never lose hope, for HOPE is a silent angel that delivers us from the darkest Maelstrom.”
A unique, rich, transcultural account of decades of experience in the field of therapeutic community, in an easy narrative to follow. Dr. Perfas weaves a personal story of walking into an uncharted career in addiction therapy. This life journey tracks his personal development as a professional while providing a rare glimpse into the challenges of recovery from addiction and the struggles of those who work as addiction professionals. He tells an engaging personal story of his introduction into the therapeutic community, his experiences learning and practicing the TC in different cultural settings, and decades of counseling and teaching the TC to clients and other professionals. The TC methods and tools come to life as he tells his story.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A memoir of an improbable success in a modest social service career that helped the author achieve his dream of traveling and life abroad. Overcoming difficulties and challenges of going to college and landing a financially uncertain job, he persevered, relying on faith that it would work out in the end. Armed with a hard-earned college education, he pursued a career that he hoped would make a difference among the socially disadvantaged. He carved out a career in the field of addiction and mental health that few would find financially profitable. Driven by his thirst for knowledge, he continued to pursue higher education while building his career in a thankless job, taking on challenging assignments. Little did he know that the hard choices he made would take him abroad and lead him to meet people who proved instrumental to his success. It's a story of grit and perseverance in a career spanning more than 50 years, and an unflinching belief that charity and good deeds return in more blessings than one.
