- Summary
- . Psychopharmacology and Psychotherapy will be a valuable resource for all mental health professionals who face the exciting challenge of providing treatment outcomes that are effective, affordable, and long lasting. It may be the most practical and user-friendly book on clinical practice published in some time.
- Psychopharmacology and Psychotherapy: Strategies for Maximizing Treatment Outcomes is designed to provide mental health professionals with the skills they need to effectively combine appropriate treatment modalities, particularly when medications are involved. Whether the clinician prescribes the medication or is providing psychotherapy to a patient taking prescribed medication, this book offers numerous strategies and guidelines for maximizing treatment outcomes.
- Specific strategies are provided for combining treatment and for collaboration between the prescribing clinician and the psychotherapist. Four overlapping therapeutic strategies designed to assist the clinician in understanding and providing tailored treatment are then examined. These include combining treatment modalities, enhancing compliance, incorporating psychoeducational interventions, and preventing relapse and recurrence.
