Among mental health researchers, there is a consensus that empirically
supported treatments (ESTs) have favorable outcomes and that the
outcomes are typically better than other approaches. The majority of
these are available as therapist manuals, brief books, or other
extended volumes. However, among mental health service providers,
there is often a view that these manuals and books can be formulaic
and rigid, and likely insensitive to individual patient needs or
presentations. With these conflicting perspectives in place, there is
a need for accurate communication and reconciliation. _Flexibility
within Fidelity_ identifies how effective ESTs can be implemented with
both integrity and flexibility. The book is comprised of chapters
focusing on specific ESTs for identified problem areas amongst adults
and children/adolescents, including anxiety disorders, PTSD, pain
management, and depression among others. Chapter authors focus on the
specific treatment components that are required to maintain fidelity
and the features of the EST which can be applied with flexibility,
promoting a personalized implementation. Written in an accessible
style featuring in-depth clinical discussions, this book will equip
mental health practitioners with the tools to implement ESTs across
client presentations.
