Over the past two decades, scientific breakthroughs in neurobiology, the development of novel psychotropic medications, advances in the reliable and valid means of assessing psychopathology, and the growth of managed care have all resulted in a revolution in the way psychopathology is treated. Psychologists, clinical social workers, and counselors need a solid grounding in clinical psychopharmacology to be effective players in this new environment.
Dr. Herbert discusses the key role psychoactive medications play in the treatment plan for many patients, with an emphasis on combining medications with psychotherapy. He reviews basic mechanisms of drug action; the major classes of medication; and basic principles of clinical psychopharmacology. He also describes strategies for building collaborative working relationships with physician psychopharmacologists. Finally, he touches on future directions, including the controversial issue of prescription privileges for psychologists.
