Using Workbooks in Mental Health Resources in Prevention, Psychotherapy, and Rehabilitation for Clinicians and Researchers

This book examines the effectiveness of mental health workbooks designed to address problems ranging from dementia and depression to addiction, spousal abuse, eating disorders, and more. Compiled by Dr. Luciano L'Abate, a leading authority on mental health workbooks, this resource will help clinicians and researchers become aware of the supportive evidence for the use of workbooks. Therapists and researchers share their success stories and reveal how these cost-effective tools will help clients outside of traditional face-to-face therapy. Using Workbooks in Mental Health examines workbooks designed to specifically help: clients affected by dementia or depression; abused women; gambling addicts; women who have substance-abuse addictions; incarcerated felons; couples preparing for marriage; children with school refusal disorder; and more. Elaine M. Scorza of Doody's Notes said it is "A GROUNDBREAKING BOOK. . . . A number of different types of mental health professionals could benefit from this book. . . . AN EXCELLENT BOOK for seasoned professionals across disciplines who would like to move toward a multimodal approach to treatment and use materials that may produce a more easily measured assessment of individual symptoms or problems."L'Abate, Luciano is the author of 'Using Workbooks in Mental Health Resources in Prevention, Psychotherapy, and Rehabilitation for Clinicians and Researchers', published 2004 under ISBN 9780789015945 and ISBN 0789015943.
