de David F. Tolin, Randy O. Frost, Gail Steketee

Hoarding is a behavioral problem consisting of clutter, difficulty discarding items, and excessive buying or acquiring. Hoarding is often associated with significant reduction in quality of life, and in extreme cases, it can pose serious health risks. This title outlines a scientifically based, effective program for helping those with hoarding disorder dig their way out of the clutter and chaos of their homes. It outlines a program of skill-building, learning to think about possessions in a different way, and gradual challenges to help people manage their clutter and their lives. It also provides useful information for family and friends of people who hoard, as they struggle to understand and help. *-Provided by Publisher*
