Clinical Psychology For Trainees

Clinical Psychology for Trainees: Foundations of a Science-Informed Practice is a practical handbook for students of clinical psychology. It takes the trainee through all the aspects of the practice of the profession, but does so by illustrating how to think and act in a way that every decision is informed by data. Revised for DSM-5 and ICD-11, the recent edition has been updated to reflect developments in transdiagnostic approaches to practice, personalized medicine, and now includes sections on working in private practice. Chapters introduce the trainee to diagnosis and assessment, case formulation, treatment measurement and monitoring, and how to implement a variety of treatments. The chapters also discuss adaptations in the formats of treatment to group therapy, brief interventions and low-intensity psychological interventions. Chapters additionally consider the cross-cultural and ethical aspects of clinical psychology practice, as well as working in rural and remote settings. The evidence-based approach emphasizes that the consequent evaluation and accountability of clinical psychology practice will provide a solid foundation for a thriving professional career--
