Philosophy:
The first step in the treatment process is the development of a treatment plan with the patient. This treatment plan is a guide for both the clinician and the patient that includes the goals of treatment, empirical measures and interventions. The collaborative development of this plan and the use of measures ensure that there is alignment between what the clinician will provide and what the patient expects. Clients are then engaged in the process which many involve reading materials, writing assignments and behavioral experiments. Each session begins with the setting of an agenda to help keep both the patient and clinician "on track" and help assure an organized and comprehensive treatment. Clinicians (who are the experts on CBT) contribute items to the agenda having to do with the programmatic aspects of CBT and patients (who are the experts on themselves) contribute items based on what is happening in their lives and what they know will or will not be helpful. This approach increase
