PRACTICEPLANNERS® SERIES PREFACE
Accountability is an important dimension of the practice of psychotherapy. Treatment programs, public agencies, clinics, and practitioners must justify and document their treatment plans to outside review entities in order to be reimbursed for services. The books and software in the PracticePlanners® series are designed to help practitioners fulfill these documentation requirements efficiently and professionally.
The PracticePlanners® series includes a wide array of treatment planning books including not only the original Complete Adult Psychotherapy Treatment Planner, Child Psychotherapy Treatment Planner, and Adolescent Psychotherapy Treatment Planner, all now in their sixth editions, but also Treatment Planners targeted to specialty areas of practice, including:
Addictions
Behavioral medicine
College students
Co‐occurring disorders
Couples therapy
Crisis counseling
Early childhood education
Employee assistance
Family therapy
Gays and lesbians
Group therapy
Juvenile justice and residential care
Intellectual and developmental disabilities
Older adults
Parenting skills
Pastoral counseling
Personality disorders
Probation and parole
Psychopharmacology
Rehabilitation psychology
School counseling and school social work
Severe and persistent mental illness
Sexual abuse victims and offenders
Social work and human services
Special education
Speech‐language pathology
Suicide and homicide risk assessment
Veterans and active duty military
Women's issues
In addition, there are four companion products that can be used in conjunction with the Treatment Planners, or on their own:
Progress Notes Planners provide a menu of progress statements that elaborate on the client's symptom presentation and the provider's therapeutic intervention. Each Progress Notes Planner statement is directly integrated with the Behavioral Definitions and Therapeutic Interventions from its companion Treatment Planner.
Homework Planners include homework assignments designed around each presenting problem (such as anxiety, depression, substance use, anger control problems, eating disorders, or panic disorder) that is the focus of a chapter in its corresponding Treatment Planner.
Evidence‐Based Psychotherapy Treatment Planning Video Series offers 12 sixty‐minute programs that provide step‐by‐step guidance on how to use empirically supported treatments to inform the entire treatment planning process. In a viewer‐friendly manner, Drs. Art Jongsma and Tim Bruce discuss the steps involved in integrating evidence‐based treatment (EBT) Objectives and Interventions into a treatment plan. The research support for the EBTs is summarized, and selected aspects of the EBTs are demonstrated in role‐played counseling scenarios.
TheraScribe® is the #1 selling treatment planning and clinical record‐keeping software system for mental health professionals. TheraScribe® allows the user to import the data from any of the Treatment Planner, Progress Notes Planner, or Homework Planner books into the software's expandable database to simply point and click to create a detailed, organized, individualized, and customizable treatment plan along with optional integrated progress notes and homework assignments.
TheraScribe is available by calling 616‐776‐1745. Also, see TheraScribe.com for more information.
The goal of our series is to provide practitioners with the resources they need in order to provide high‐quality care in the era of accountability. To put it simply: We seek to help you spend more time on clients and less time on paperwork.

Acknowledgments
The book is the result of the combined efforts of many people. First, I acknowledge the contribution of my coauthors on several other books, William McInnis and Mark Peterson. They also both previously gave permission for me to borrow and adapt some of the homework exercises we had collaborated on in writing the Adolescent Psychotherapy Homework Planner. Several of the assignments in this book have been adapted to the adult focus group from their original creation for the adolescent client. Thank you, Bill and Mark.
I also thank Jim Finley and Brenda Lenz for giving their permission to me to adapt two of their assignments from their Addiction Treatment Homework Planner for placement in the Substance Use section of this book.
I am grateful to Tim Bruce, my invaluable coauthor on several Treatment Planner books, who has accepted my invitation to contribute some additional exercises for this sixth edition of the Adult Psychotherapy Homework Planner.
