Solution-Oriented Brief Therapy For Adjustment Disorders: A Guide

Solution-Oriented Brief Therapy for Adjustment Disorders provides a working manual for brief, effective treatment for adjustment disorders. Step by step, it takes the therapist from initial contact and diagnosis through treatment, assessment of progress, and termination of treatment. The authors' psychotherapeutic method is tailored to the demands of managed care programs and closely follows the DSM-IV. This book will enable therapists to demonstrate specific, proven-effective treatment strategies that are appropriate for a specific impairment and within a specific time frame, as required by managed care and insurance companies.
