Competency in Combining Pharmacotherapy and Psychotherapy

This book is an outstanding contribution to the training literature. Written in a competency-based format, it details the specific items that residents must learn to manage combined treatment from assessment to termination, it also provides practical, specific advice about managing outpatient care in general. The ethical dilemmas often faced in current systems of care are addressed with thoughtful, straightforward advice. I would recommend the text as the basis for a stand-alone course for mid-level trainees."" - Donna M. Sudak, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry, Interim Director of Training, Director of Psychotherapy Training, Drexel University;""To do modern clinical psychiatry, this text should be right by your side. It describes how to integrate cutting-edge psychopharmacology with psychosocial interventions. Following their practical guidelines, you’ll thank Riba, Balon and Roberts after every patient and family session."" - Ira D. Glick, M.D., Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, Department of Psychiatry, Stanford University School of Medicine
