CompetencyBased Assessments in Mental Health Practice should be required reading for all clinical practitioners and students. Author Susan W. Gray provides a competencybased assessment model that moves away from looking at mental illness as a 'disease' to capturing people's strengths and the uniqueness of their experience with mental illness.'Alex GittermaZachs Professor and Director of PhD Program'CompetencyBased Assessment in Mental Health Practice not only describes the rather cumbersome DSMIVTR in a manner that graduate students and clinicians can easily understand and apply, but it also presents a competencybased type of clinical assessment that most effectively integrates the social work practice orientation that acknowledges, appreciates, and nurtures client strengths, resilience, and client ability for empowerment.'Agathi Glezakos, PhD, LCSWSchool of Social WorkCalifornia State University, Long BeachA competencybased assessment model integratingDSM classifications for a complete, strengthsbased diagnosisCompetencyBased Assessments in Mental Health Practice introduces a unique, competencybased assessment that presents a brief overview of the major mental disorders that practitioners will likely encounter in their work with clients, followed by a series of case studies and practical applications.This book provides valuable guidance for clinicians to make assessments grounded in client strengths and possibilities for a more therapeutically complete picture of every client's 'story.'Organized around selected diagnostic categories from the DSMIVTR, this handson guide offers a multidimensional look at the many factors that play a role in a client's life. Its holistic approach to the assessment process considers each client's unique experience with mental illness, through a concurrent evaluation of strengths and pathology, in order to set the stage for realistic optimism about the potential for change.
