TREATMENT PLANS FOR MENTAL HEALTH THERAPISTS

Treatment plans that fit the modality.

EMDR phase structure (1–8), DBT stage framework, CBT goal arcs, with outcome measure scheduling and payer-ready documentation.

How mental health therapists actually use this

  4. 4DBT: stage 1 target hierarchy, skills focus
  5. 5CBT: SMART goals with cognitive distortion tracking
  6. 6Outcome measures (PHQ-9, GAD-7) re-administered every 4 weeks
  7. 7Plan review at 8/12/16 weeks for continued treatment authorization
