From the Author

As the Senior Author and Series Editor, I am pleased to announce that the new editions of our Treatment Planners have been released. We have been working on them as a team of authors for over two years. I am indebted to my coauthors who have deep expertise in the clinical field addressed in each Treatment Planner. Dr. Tim Bruce, especially, has brought his wide knowledge base in Evidence-based Practice to bear on several of our Planners. Each Planner has, of course, been updated with the new DSM-5/ICD-10 codes, but beyond that there are several other improvements in the latest books. I believe you will find this expanded and revised edition is a significant step forward in being a resource for finding a menu of succinctly written statements describing Interventions to help you help your client recover. Allow me to list the new material you will find in our latest attempt to help you write clinically sound and complete treatment plans:  

1) The latest research-supported, evidence-based Interventions

2) Updated and expanded bibliotherapy references as well as research related references for each chapter topic

3) A new Appendix which provides written Objectives and Interventions that capture the essential theme of the ten Core Principles of the SAMSHA-endorsed Recovery Model

4) A new Suggested Diagnosis section in each chapter that provides a helpful transition from DSM-IV/ICD-9 to the newly listed DSM-5/ICD-10 diagnostic codes and labels

5) A more complete integration of suggested Homework Exercises in each chapter to support Interventions

6) A set of Objectives and Interventions added to each chapter to assist in assessing specifiers relevant to DSM-5 diagnosis

Research suggests that an ever increIDg number of practioners are relying on tools such as this to help formulate treatment plans.
As a graduate student, what I find useful about this book is that after you study a particular disorder—from the DSM-IV-TR itself, a good psychopathology text (see Davison & Neal’s Abnormal Psychology), and the DSM’s Diagnostic Criteria handbook, The Adult Psychotherapy Treatment Planner completes the loop.
I bought this book after taking a case studies class where the instructor did an absolutely miserable job in showing us the rhyme and reason behind a good treatment plan. Not satisfied that I knew enough about this critically important piece in the counseling process, I did some research and found this book to be the most highly regarded in this genre.
As subsequent classes deal with child and adolescent psychopathology, family psychopathology, etc. etc. I will be getting the treatment plans that correspond with these issues.

This book is designed to be a workbook–a resource for writing treatment plans. Be aware, if you buy the Kindle edition, the publisher puts a limit on how much you can copy from it—which means it’s usefulness is limited. I can not find anywhere in the text that states there is a copy limit or how much can be copied. The limit came as a complete surprise to me. I find this to be a major flaw in the usefulness of this book for me.

I bought the book expecting assistance in writing measurable treatment plans. I was disappointed. While the text does provide helpful ideas, most are not measurable. If you need something that helps define measurable terms, this is not the book to get.
