Reviews

Structured Clinical Management is a practical, compassionate, and highly valued approach to helping people with personality disorder. This book provides an excellent guide for all those working in mental health services, whether they are delivering SCM or just want to provide better care to people with complex emotional health needs.
*Mike Crawford, Professor of Mental Health Research, Imperial College London, UK*

The beauty of this book is that it not only provides a simple and comprehensive set of evidence-based ingredients of quality treatment for personality disordered patients, but it also illustrates how to implement SCM in regular clinical services. A powerful resource for any service with an interest in providing high-quality generalist treatment.
*Joost Hutsebaut, de Viersprong, Tilburg University and Centre of Expertise on Personality Disorders, The Netherlands*

Adult mental health services often struggle to respond to the complex needs of people with personality difficulties and their care often falls woefully short. Yet the provision of well-structured care can lead to tangible health benefits. Structured Clinical Management (SCM) provides a pragmatic approach to delivering such care and this comprehensive textbook tells us exactly how to do this. It is essential reading for anyone involved in the delivery, management and commissioning of adult mental health services.
