This valuable resource prepares graduate-level students in social
work and other helping professions to provide integrated behavioral
health services in community-based health and mental healthcare
settings. Responding to the increasing prevalence of behavioral health
issues in the general U.S. population and the resulting additional
responsibilities for social workers and health professionals, this
textbook describes the latest evidence-based practices and interventions
for common behavioral health disorders as well as issues related to
suicide, violence, substance use, and trauma. Detailed case studies help
illustrate the effects of a range of interventions, inviting readers to
consider how best to implement behavioral health assessment and
treatment practices that are evidence-based, trauma-informed, and
recovery-oriented.
In addition to outlining integrated
behavioral health service models and assessment tools, chapters address
specific topics such as:
- Public health approaches to addressing interpersonal violence
- Intersections of social, behavioral, and physical health
- Achieving recovery and well-being from behavioral health disorders
- Motivating clients to achieve and maintain recovery from addiction
- Stage-based treatments for substance use disorders
- Cognitive behavioral approaches to treating anxiety and depressive disorders
- Evidence-based approaches to treating the effects of trauma and PTSD
Integrated Behavioral Health Practice equips
graduate students and health professionals alike to provide sensitive
and informed interprofessional care for patients and families while
consistently engaging in practices that emphasize recovery and
well-being.
