Foundations of Treatment 151
therapy to those living outside the hospital?
Some patients will live with their families;
why might family therapy be offered to those

Summary of Creating a
Treatment Plan
The treatment or treatments given to a
particular patient depend on the patient’s
willingness to receive particular treatments,
on research results regarding specifi c treat-
ments for the patient’s problem, and on
the expertise of the mental health clinician.
Some patients may receive more than one
type of treatment, depending on their spe-
cifi c problem(s), the effectiveness of a given
treatment, and the patient’s interest in pur-
suing additional treatments. Although any
given treatment targets only one factor,
changes brought about by an effective treat-
ment in turn affect other factors.
Thinking like a clinician
Now suppose that Nita, the woman with
depression, is receiving CBT and taking medica-
tion. Why might she be receiving two types of
treatment? What does—and doesn’t—the fact
that she’s receiving more than one type of treat-
ment indicate about the nature of her problem?
