Sammanfattning
This article attempts to explain why therapeutic work on quality of life (subjective well-being) is so essential to patients with addiction disorders, and to outline how a therapy with quality of life as its primary target can be practiced. I briefly present two health promoting models: Aaron Antonovsky?s theory on salutogenesis and Corey Keyes? theory on flourishing. Then I describe important aspects of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which for us has proved very useful for translating rather abstract health promoting models into therapeutic practice. Finally I present our resulting therapeutic model ? The Frognerlia Model.
