Outcomes and Incomes: How to Evaluate, Improve, and Market Your Psychotherapy Practice by Measuring Outcomes

Outcomes and Incomes: How to Evaluate, Improve, and Market Your Psychotherapy Practice by Measuring Outcomes

Alan E. Kazdin
2/5 ( ratings)
This indispensable guide presents the tools therapists need to incorporate outcomes measurement effectively and meaningfully into everyday clinical work. Outlining a highly flexible system based on the author's extensive experience in the real world of clinical practice, the book and disk feature more than 25 ready-to-use, reproducible checklists and forms. Clear, step-by-step guidelines show clinicians how to use outcomes evaluation to improve and market their services and nourish the growth of their practice. Readers with only minimal statistical knowledge will quickly and easily learn to:

*Implement four different methods of gathering client outcome data, from simple master lists of problems, to checklists, standardized scales, and tailor-made instruments
*Integrate measurement procedures into routine practice in a clinically useful fashion
*Organize outcomes data with readily available database software
*Evaluate therapeutic change in one client or a diagnostic group
*Produce well-documented reports on the delivery and quality of care

Many of the book's generic and targeted measures can be photocopied for immediate use or printed out from the companion disk. Clement's system can also be used with a wide range of commercially available measures: specific suggestions are provided throughout. A wealth of charts, figures, and handy statistical conversion tables further enhance the book's utility.
