'Extremely user-friendly, and replete with information on the ethical and legal issues related to the forms... Has just about what anyone needs to both understand and effectively document psychotherapy. [The book] could also serve as an effective supplementary text in courses on ethics.' - Family Psychologist '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.' - Robert Lesser, RN, BSN, McHenry County Mental Health Board, Illinois 'The materials contained in this book are comprehensive. 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, PhD, Mansfield University 'The author sets out to provide his readers with guidelines that will make them less vulnerable to litigation while conducting a profitable and stable independent practice. He succeeds in doing this and much more.' - Journal of Teaching in Social Work
