Combining medication and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be challenging but can also enhance patient care. This book reviews the existing literature about the neurobiological and clinical basis in combining CBT and medication for non-psychiatrist mental health clinicians. Filled with case studies drawn from the author's extensive clinical and teaching experience, this book breaks new ground in bringing together the most current, proven protocols for using drugs and CBT to improve client care. Practitioners will find in this volume the tools to make informed recommendations to patients.
"Perhaps the most valuable aspect of the book, though, are the guidelines for collaborative care and the professional socialization provided as to how important it is for providers to establish trust and communicate well. There is a good discussion of how to set up collaborative relationships and of the kinds of information and policies that providers should share." (PsycCRITIQUES, Volume 56, Issue 51)
