Product Overview
Is life after graduate school different from what you expected? Are you finding that graduate school did not teach you a number of critical skills and attitudes that you now need as a practicing therapist? You are not alone. Many therapists are struggling to adapt not only to the profession's changing landscape (such as the advent of managed care and the burgeoning of new theories and treatment approaches), but also to demands directly related to their professional and personal success. This book explores many issues that are rarely addressed in formal educational experiences, for example, organizational politics, the negative "side effects" of being a therapist, keeping up with cutting edge innovations, and planning for the future. It offers many concrete suggestions for adapting to the world outside of graduate school.
