The Addiction Treatment Planner: Includes DSM-5 Updates

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:  

This timesaving resource features:

• Treatment plan components for 43 behaviorally based presenting problems
• Over 1,000 prewritten treatment goals, objectives, and interventions―plus space to record your own treatment plan options
• A step-by-step guide to writing treatment plans that meet the requirements of most accrediting bodies, insurance companies, and third-party payors
