User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars A great book
This is a great book. I used it when I was in residency. I am now a practicing psychiatrist. I can still, even to this day, see how this book has shaped my clinical interviewing in a positive way. It is practical, it takes the theory and gives you examples of how to phrase things. It has mneumonics that help you remember all of the different parts of the interview. it enables you to do a pretty complete diagnositic interview when you need to. I remember getting compliments from my supervisors after they observed my interview when I started using these methods. It is a great book to get when you are wondering about how to get started when you first begin conducting interviews.

For those of us who appreciate straight-to-the point guides to doing what we do, this book is just the thing. It is easy to follow, gives helpful mneumonics for various disorders and fits in the pocket of you white coat.
5 Stars Easy-to-follow Psych Interview Guide
I prefer this kind of pocket-sized, concise guide to health care. The mneumonics were especially helpful to remember the identifying characteristics of different conditions. With appendices of patient education handouts and intake forms, this book is very complete for its small size.
