Other Available Formats: E-book

Competency-Based Assessments in Mental Health Practice should be required reading for all clinical practitioners and students. Author Susan Gray provides a competency-based 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.

Competency-Based Assessment in Mental Health Practice not only describes the rather cumbersome DSM-IV in a manner that graduate students and clinicians can easily understand and apply, but it also presents a competency-based 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.
