Documentation Sourcebooks provide the forms and records that mental health professionals need to efficiently run their practice.
These manuals provide a practical structure for thinking about the treatment planning process, although will likely need some tweeking to fit your own clinical needs. The I found the interventions listed a bit too detailed for most tx plans, but still a good model for those who need some help with how to descibe what they do. I found it to be an excellent training tool for those new to the necessity of writing well organized plans. A thoughtful use of this material should please any regulatory agency.

Research Supported Treatment Interventions
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This 2nd edition of the Severe and Persistent Mental Illness Treatment Planner has been revised to include Evidence Based Treatment (EBT) Objectives and Interventions. The latest research evidence has been integrated into the content of most of the chapters. Those Objectives and Interventions that go beyond "Best Practice" to being based on replicable reseach results are highlighted with an EBT symbol. Now the reader can be assured that all the latest research has been reviewed and suggestions for treatment based on successful results are noted in those chapters where research evidence exists. Where there is not sufficient research evidence available for a presenting problem, best practice interventions continue to be suggested. As federal funding sources as well as some other third party payers are beginning to insist on treatment based on research evidence, this Planner offers just such Interventions. Please be reminded that all of our psychotherapy suggestions assume a compassionate relationship of empathy that is crucial for effective treatment. Good psychotherapists realize the critical importance of a therapeutic relationship while delivering research informed treatment.
