Summary

The casebook provides 17 additional case histories based on the authors' clinical experiences, each going beyond DSM-IV diagnosis to describe the individual's history and symptoms, a theoretical discussion of treatment, a specific treatment plan, and the actual treatment conducted. The casebook also provides 3 cases without diagnosis or treatment, so students can identify disorders and suggest appropriate therapies.
