How can therapists become better at doing what they love, avoid burnout, and prevent client dropout?

Respected therapist, trainer, and researcher Barry L. Duncan asserts that getting better at this work requires therapists to dedicate themselves to two key tasks: obtaining systematic client feedback and taking charge of their own development as a therapist.

This book describes his Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS), which provides systematic feedback from clients, thereby enabling therapists to identify and target clients who aren amp rsquo t responding to traditional treatment before they drop out.

Duncan examines the common factors inherent to all successful therapies and details the importance of the therapeutic alliance as the foundation of effective therapy. He encourages therapists to expand their theoretical breadth, think deeply about the lessons they learn from their clients, and integrate these lessons into their performance. His highly readable book details a five-step plan to take charge of personal and professional development, stave off disenchantment, and remain a vital force for change in clients amp rsquo lives.

His work regarding consumer rights and client feedback, the Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS), is included in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices and has been implemented across the United States and in 2 other countries. He codeveloped PCOMS to give clients the voice they deserve as well as to provide clients, clinicians, administrators, and payers with feedback about the client's response to services, thus enabling more effective care tailored to client preferences.

Dr. Duncan implements PCOMS in small and large systems of care and conducts agency trainings, workshops, and keynote presentations on all of the topics listed above. Drawing upon his extensive clinical experience and passion for the work, his trainings speak directly to the frontline clinician about what it means to be a therapist and how each of us can re-remember and achieve our original aspirations to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.
