This book presents a "partnership" model which addresses the need immediately useful discipline specific content on the most important social work practice roles in mental health. The book articulates how roles often associated with working with a specific population (e.g. those who abuse substances, persons with severe mental illness, distressed marital couples) are quite relevant and useful in a much wider range of populations. Experts address social workers' many roles: crisis counselor, diagnostician, therapist, mediator, educator, skills trainer, case manager, mediation facilitator, consumer and family consultant, team collaborator, advocate, programme evaluator/ researcher, and administrator and policy analyst.
