This book is a "how-to" manual for incorporating psychotherapy into the daily practice of primary care medicine. In the universe of primary care patients, many, if not all, have a behavioural component as part and parcel of their visit to a physician.
Successfully recognising and addressing these issues in a time-effective manner will benefit the patient while at the same time increasing the satisfaction of the caregiver. This manual is designed for family physicians and general internists and other providers of primary health care services such as paediatricians, college health physicians, emergency physicians, and nurse practitioners, as well as specialists in non-primary care fields.
