This book introduces stepped care in the context of computer-aided therapy. The text outlines specific problems, offering a description of each step and evidence base; triage/assessment; toolbox and resources for each step; and quality assurance procedures. |
| Synopsis: |
Stepped care provides the least intrusive intervention to individuals seeking treatment by providing a range of treatment intensities. In the past two decades, computers and the internet have provided a new and efficient medium that lends well to adding steps in a stepped-care model. While there is ample evidence to support the positive effects of bibliotherapy or self-help books, computer-aided therapy (also known as e-health) has the potential to take these effects even further.This volume will be of interest to practitioners and organizations attempting to serve rural and underserved communities. The book focuses on evidence-based treatment, making it consistent with quality improvement initiatives. |
