    A CLINICIAN'S GUIDE TO LEGAL ISSUES IN PSYCHOTHERAPY Or PROCEED WITH CAUTION

    William H. Reid

    If you are a mental health professional, developing a solid understanding of the legal parameters of individual clinical practice is as essential to you as expanding your knowledge of the field. Knowing what Bill Reid knows is a very good place to start.

    Quality practice is the best protection against litigation. It's a good premise but clearly it is not the end of the story. Written specifically for nonphysician practitioners, including psychologists, psychotherapists, and counselors, A Clinician's Guide tells you what else you have to do to lower the legal risks and to avoid the pitfalls of practice. It explains common forensic issues and standards as they apply to mental health professionals, and it helps clarify risk-benefit issues involved in health care delivery.

    Reid is a psychiatrist who in recent years has devoted much of his time to working at the interface between mental health and the law - reviewing and evaluating cases, assessing litigants, advising courts and attorneys, and sometimes testifying in court. A Clinician's Guide is an opportunity to benefit from his extensive experience at this important interface.
