ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

It has been an ongoing pleasure to work on the revision of this Treatment Planner with authors/editors Art Jongsma and Sarah Knapp, and with Sue Rhoda and the production staff at John Wiley & Sons. I am grateful for the consistent professionalism and extensive knowledge each person has brought to the overall process and the book itself. When I was asked to join the project, I was thrilled to become part of such a valuable and effective series, and am grateful for the opportunity to provide information about what is known about effective interventions and programs for youth in school. Identifying ways to incorporate research evidence about effective school‐based interventions into existing best practices based on practitioner wisdom and experience is a difficult endeavor for many reasons, so having excellent collaborators has made a huge difference. The challenge and the gift of clinical work, especially with young people, is that it requires ongoing expansion of knowledge and skill—we are always developing our understanding of why students behave as they do, how change happens, and what it means to provide support during that process. For these and other reasons, this Treatment Planner will need to be considered an ongoing work in progress, as the professions of school social work and school counseling evolve, as knowledge and ideas about mental health intervention and prevention advance, and as the complex contexts in which youth develop continue to change.

In addition to the support of everyone at Wiley, I had crucial assistance from graduate students Justine Schuff and Elizabeth Barker during early steps in the process. Jay Carey and Karen Harrington, my colleagues at the Center for School Counseling Outcome Research and Evaluation, provided ongoing practical suggestions and resources. Rich Lapan, my academic program colleague, did the same. My family—Wendy McGannon, Sarah Dobrow, and Josh Dobrow—deserve special recognition for their love and support throughout the process. Thanks to all!

I would only add to Carey's comments that I valued the opportunity to work with her as an expert in the field of evidence‐based treatment in the school setting. Carey has a manner about her which makes her a joy to work with and leaves one feeling deep respect for her talents. The foundation for this second edition was, of course, the excellent work of Sarah Knapp, the primary author of the first edition, who also contributed to this rewrite. Sarah has a wide range of skills and experience related to students, teachers, and parents. She is truly gifted and I am privileged to have become her friend and colleague. Thank you to both Carey and Sarah for their highly professional work on this second edition of The School Counseling and School Social Work Treatment Planner.

I have been part of an outstanding team that has compiled this revised edition of The School Counseling and School Social Work Treatment Planner. I have always valued the contributions and support of Art Jongsma, who is the inspirational force behind all of the treatment planners. Carey Dimmitt has added valuable research and resources to this new edition. Finally, great thanks to Kim A. Nir, our Senior Production Editor, and the staff at Wiley for their accessibility and publishing expertise. This truly has been an extremely expanding and rewarding team effort.

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 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 fifth editions, but also Treatment Planners targeted to specialty areas of practice, including:

  • Addictions
  • Co‐occurring disorders
  • Behavioral medicine
  • College students
  • Couples therapy
  • Crisis counseling
  • Early childhood education
  • Employee assistance
  • Family therapy
  • Gays and lesbians
  • Group therapy
  • Juvenile justice and residential care
  • Mental retardation and developmental disability
  • Neuropsychology
  • 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 military duty
  • Women's issues

In addition, there are three branches of companion books 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.
  • Client Education Handout Planners provide brochures and handouts to help educate and inform clients on presenting problems and mental health issues, as well as life skills techniques. The handouts are included on CD‐ROMs for easy printing from your computer and are ideal for use in waiting rooms, at presentations, as newsletters, or as information for clients struggling with mental illness issues. The topics covered by these handouts correspond to the presenting problems in the Treatment Planners.

The series also includes adjunctive books, such as The Psychotherapy Documentation Primer and The Clinical Documentation Sourcebook, containing forms and resources to aid the clinician in mental health practice management.

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 patients, and less time on paperwork.
