Research-Based Summaries of Best Practices
Practice Briefs are short, peer-reviewed articles on a wide variety of client-presenting issues and counseling topics. Written by experts in the field, the Briefs present research-based summaries of best practices, evidence-based practices and research-based approaches. Each Practice Brief includes current references and has been peer-reviewed by two Subject Matter Experts before being accepted for publication. They can serve as quick go-to guides for the clinician needing to brush up on existing ideas or gather new information.
