A guide to conducting Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment to
promote client growth
Mental health professionals are increasingly enthusiastic about
and ready to use psychological test data, research, and theory in
life-relevant ways to improve diagnosis, client care, and treatment
outcomes. With Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment (C/TA), clients
participate actively with the assessor in exploring how their test
scores and patterns reflect who they are in their daily lives and
how they can learn to help themselves cope with life’s
challenges.
Using a case study approach to demonstrate how to apply C/TA in
practice, Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment provides
practitioners with a variety of flexible and adaptable case
examples featuring adults, children, adolescents, couples, and
families from different backgrounds in need of treatment for
assorted concerns.
Designed for both experienced and novice clinicians, the book
begins with a brief history of C/TA, and provides clear definitions
of the distinctions among many common approaches. It uniquely
presents:
* Eighteen diverse C/TA assessments covering: depression, multiple
suicide attempts, severe abuse, dissociation, an adolescent
psychiatric ward, custody evaluation, a couple in crisis, and
collaborative neuropsychology
* Guidance on how both client and clinician can agree on the best
course of action through joint exploration of assessment
procedures, results, and implications
* Closely related approaches to psychological testing, including
Individualized Assessment, Collaborative Assessment, Therapeutic
Model of Assessment, Collaborative/Therapeutic Neuropsychological
Assessment, and Rorschach-based psychotherapy
* Clearly labeled Teaching Points in each chapter
Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment provides
psychologists in all areas of assessment, and at all levels of
experience, with powerful C/TA examples that can dramatically
illuminate and improve clients’ lives.
