This book presents easily understood, brief guidelines for each step in the provision of psychological services.

By targeting the discussion in this way, the format allows for the provision of actual methods that work, thus enabling the newcomer to accomplish a variety of clinical tasks. Plentiful examples of the interviews, reports, and records that the practitioner is called upon to conduct or compile are included throughout the text. In addition, there are extensive tables detailing various syndromes, as well as tests and classes of medication.
