Overview

Clinical Social Work Practice provides you with a method for integrating clinical theories and practice with diverse clients. This user-friendly book addresses assessment within a theoretical framework. It considers the use of DSM-V and the mental status exam. The authors' clinical social work is presented authentically, describing both successes as well as mistakes. Diverse case studies show you how to apply theory in your work with individuals, families, groups, children and adolescents.
