Clinical Case Studies
The only journal devoted entirely to psychotherapy case studies, Clinical Case Studies presents innovative psychotherapy cases involving individual, couples, and family therapy. Whether you are a psychologist, counselor, psychiatrist, clinical social worker, family therapist, professor or student of psychotherapy, you’ll find Clinical Case Studies to be a necessary part of your library. The easy-to-follow case presentation format allows you to learn how interesting and challenging cases were assessed and conceptualized, and how treatment followed such conceptualization. This practical format allows clinicians to replicate successful treatments in their own practices. Cases presented in the journal will follow a 12-point format including Title Page, Abstract, and References.
