Beyond their obvious value for experienced therapists, they are of use for introducing graduate students to the procedural dilemmas of clinical practice." --Peter A. Keller, Ph.D., Mansfield University, Mansfield, PA "I am very impressed with this book. It looks like it will be a great deal of help. Over the past 13 years, I have worked as a therapist in a variety of private and public (state and county) mental health settings. I have always prided myself in producing quality written work (reaction formation?), believing it is a necessary reality in today's world--if you have to do a task, you may as well do it well. I anticipate that I will find your book to be a valuable resource." --David Barbour, ACSW "This is the most awesome book I have read in some time. THANK YOU. I am an MSW LSW with a small private practice (under supervision of course) and this information will certainly help me. If you have any further updates or any other information please contact my e-mail site. Thank you." --Mark Mondoro, MSW LSW "I am presently involved in developing an accredited network of behavioral health providers and wish that each one of the provider organizations and practices would have had access to this manual. Many new policies and procedures had to be developed to be in compliance with the standards for accreditation and this manual would have greatly enhanced that process. I would encourage all practices, whether solo practitioner or group practices, to get a copy of this manual and review their policies, procedures and forms. This manual will greatly reduce the work required to position practices and organizations to meet the present and future demands of a rapidly changing process of provision and reimbursement for behavioral health care." --Robert Lesser, R.N., B.S.N., McHenry County Mental Health Board, Illinois FEEDBACK FROM USER SURVEY: "It made starting up my practice simple." "Very professional, covers almost every situation." "I am using the book and disk to help me understand what a private practice requires. It has been and is very helpful in that regard and I believe it will save time and money well worth the product's cost." "...one of the best products I have ever purchased. It has really saved me time." "This is an extremely useful book for would-be practitioners (students and recent graduates), too-it's clear and informative and appears to cover all the important bases." "I am very pleased with the product-it is very helpful in reinforcing my education and in taking me well beyond academics to practicalities." "I appreciate the information on ethics--it is helpful reminder and useful for practice." "...saves me from significant research, administrative, and office work time and effort....frees me to focus my efforts on the enjoyable aspects of my practice and professional life." "I have found it to be an excellent and modestly priced asset to my practice."
