Re:Writing Effective Treatment Plans

I agree with you on having measurable objectives, in terms of accountability.

My problem has always been that so much of human behavior and emotion defies measurability. I may set out at the beginning of therapy with that same set of coping techniques and such, only to have the client resolve their depression through improved communication or increased insight. I do, for the sake of the parent organization, comply with treatment plan requirements, but I still prefer to go by intuition. THat falls in line with my existentialist/humanistic thinking. While I do rely on behavioral and RET strategies, I am first and foremost a humanist.
