PRACTICEPLANNERSSERIES PREFACE
The practice of psychotherapy has a dimension that did not exist 30, 20, or even 15 years agoaccountability. Treatment programs, public agencies, clinics, and even group and solo practitioners must now justify the treatment of patients to outside review entities that control the payment of fees. This development has resulted in an explosion of paperwork. Clinicians must now document what has been done in treatment, what is planned for the future, and what the anticipated outcomes of the interventions are. The books and software in this PracticePlanners series are designed to help practitioners fulfill these documentation requirements efficiently and professionally.
The PracticePlanners series has grown rapidly. It now includes not only the original Complete Adult Psychotherapy Treatment Planner, Third Edition, The Child Psychotherapy Treatment Planner, Third Edition, and The Adolescent Psychotherapy Treatment Planner, Third Edition, but also Treatment Planners targeted to specialty areas of practice, including addictions, co-occurring disorders, juvenile justice/residential care, couples therapy, employee assistance, behavioral medicine, therapy with older adults, pastoral counseling, family therapy, group therapy, psychopharmacology, neuropsychology, therapy with gays and lesbians, special education, school counseling, probation and parole, therapy with sexual abuse victims and offenders, and more.

The list of therapeutic Homework Planners is also growing from the original Homework Planner for Adults, to Adolescent, Child, Couples, Group, Family, Addictions, Divorce, Grief, Employee Assistance, and School Counseling/School Social Work Homework Planners. Each of these books can be used alone or in conjunction with their companion Treatment Planner. Homework assignments are designed around each presenting problem (e.g., Anxiety, Depression, Chemical Dependence, Anger Management, Panic, Eating Disorders) that is the focus of a chapter in its corresponding Treatment Planner.
Client Education Handout Planners, a new branch in the series, provide brochures and handouts to help educate and inform adult, child, adolescent, couples, and family clients on a myriad of presenting problems mental health issues, as well as life skills techniques. The list of presenting problems for which information is provided mirrors the list of presenting problems in the Treatment Planner of the title similar to that of the Handout Planner. Thus, the problems for which educational material is provided in the
