چکیده

Yet many clinicians do not feel supported. They are under relentless pressure to find ever-briefer forms of treatment for all individuals, regardless of the individual's symptoms or circumstances. This pressure is especially distressing for the clinical social worker who, by tradition, has provided therapeutic services for the most-troubled individuals.

Health care trends and contraindications for short-term therapy are addressed. A clinical case is presented.
