| Description: | The Handbook presents a range of methods of intervention including cognitive behavioural social work, task-centred practice, crisis intervention, family therapy and group care. It does not have a specific chapter on psychosocial intervention but the theme of psychosocial assessment and intervention, I hope, underpins this volume. Each of these is a useful tool but needs to draw carefully on the conclusions of assessment. The use of ‘an assessment’ and thereafter an ‘appropriate intervention’ is not a one-off event but the interaction continues. Assessment may lead to changes in social work intervention over time. We also need to be careful not to assume that an initial assessment automatically leads to a specific method of intervention. For example, an assessment which is predominantly psychosocial may quite rightly be followed by a cognitive behavioural intervention. |
