Product Description
Therapist's Guide to Clinical Intervention, Second Edition is a must-have reference for clinicians completing insurance forms, participating in managed care, or practicing in treatment settings requiring formalized goals and treatment objectives. This practical, hands-on handbook outlines treatment goals and objectives for each type of psychopathology as defined by the diagnostic and statistical manual by the American Psychiatric Association, identifies skill-building resources, and provides samples of all major professional forms.
With over 30% new information, this new edition covers a variety of new special assessments including domestic violence, phobias, eating disorders, adult ADHD, and outpatient progress. New skill-building resources focus on surviving holiday blues, improving communication, overcoming shyness, teaching couples to fight "fair", surviving divorce, successful stepfamilies, managing anger, coping with post traumatic stress, and more. Additional professional forms have been added including treatment plans, a brief mental health evaluation, parent's questionnaire, and a contract for providing service for people with no insurance.
In a practical hands-on approach, this handbook:
* Outlines treatment goals and objectives for DSM-IV diagnoses
* Provides outlines for assessing special circumstances
* Offers skill building resources to supplement treatment
* Provides samples for a wide range of business and clinical forms

lots of material. kind of a mess. not at all efficient or easy to use. the index is irritating, just one big long list, jumping around alot in themes and content. i spend more time trying to find material in the book then if i had done the work myself. it reads like class notes, which is not necessarily a negative, but the content is basic for the mental/social health practitioner. you'll get more substance by typing in the topic you're seeking information on in a good sw/psy/medicine journal search engine. it's customary for alumni to have internet access to the electronic journals of one's graduate school library. a simple search would bring much more substantial material and take a lot less time.

This is a real helpful book to have in the human services field especially, now with all the changes that are occuring. I would highly recommend it, not only for therapist, but also any other person who works closely with clients.

As a Graduate level student not yet in an internship with access to professional documentation formats, this is a lifesaver. Ms. Johnson has provided solid formats also for some short-term work topics that can be adapted to a wide variety of approaches and styles. I thank her and you for providing this service.
 Somewhat Disappointed! March 22, 2007

This book was not as helpful as I thought it would be. It does not do what the title suggests. 1-2-3s of Treatment Planning suggests that it explains how to do treatment plans. At least, that is what I thought. It does not explain how to do treatment plans. It just has a lot of information, somewhat irrelevant for me.
