What are the implications for practice? And the literature on outcomes research geared towards professionals - which would provide answers - has been virtually nonexistent until now. In Treatment Outcomes in Psychotherapy and Psychiatric Interventions, the authors have created a road map through the theoretical and clinical territories that must be negotiated on the way to treatment accountability.
