Sven Scheuermeier [Episode 110] Today's episode of the Social Work Podcast is the first of a three-part series on the arc of therapy � the beginning, middle and end.  In today�s episode I�m going to talk about the beginning phase of therapy. I'll talk about some conceptual issues like what do people want when they come to treatment, and how should you be with clients? I�m also going to review some of the more concrete aspects of the beginning of treatment like biopsychosocial and DSM assessment, talking about confidentiality and billing. I want this episode to be interesting whether you�re a first year social work student or a 35 year veteran of the field. I�d like to thank TheraNest for sponsoring this three episode series.

Update April 4, 2017: Untangled has been released in paperback . [Episode 102] Today's episode of the Social Work Podcast tackles one of the most difficult developmental stages in the parent-child relationship: adolescence. If you�re a long-time listener of the podcast, you know that I�ve spent most of my professional career working with or doing research on adolescents. Like most clinicians I have more experience with adolescents when things are going wrong in their lives than when they are going right. And as a parent, I can tell you that I seem to be much more clued into when things are going wrong than things are going right. Like earlier this afternoon� no, I�m just kidding, I wouldn�t do that to you. What I will do is introduce my guest. Dr. Lisa Damour  ( @LDamour ), clinician, researcher, professor, parent, writer of the Adolescence column for the New York Times� Motherlode blog , and most importantly for today�s episode, Dr. Damour is the author of Untangled: Guiding teen...

[Episode 96] In today's Social Work Podcast I speak with two of the three developers of Attachment-based Family Therapy (ABFT), Guy S. Diamond, Ph.D. and Suzanne Levy, Ph.D. The third developer Gary M. Diamond (no relation to Guy Diamond) lives in Israel and was unavailable for the interview. ABFT is the only family-based psychotherapy with empirical support for reducing suicidal ideation in youth. In today's interview, Dr. Diamond and Dr. Levy discuss the theory and practice of Attachment-Based Family Therapy. Dr. Diamond mostly covers theory and concepts, and Dr. Levy addresses the question of "what does the therapist actually do in the therapy room."
