Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated 26.2% of American adults suffer from a diagnosable mental illness in a given year (National Institute of Mental Health, 2006). There are a variety of treatments for mental illness. Those most commonly utilized are medication and psychotherapy, or a combination of the two (American Psychiatric Association, 2005; Gutierrez & Silk, 1998). Given the improvements in psychotropic medications over the last half-century, some psychologists have become interested in adding prescriptive authority to their scope of practice. Not all psychologists, however, are supportive of prescriptive authority. Thus, a significant debate both within and outside of the field has developed over the last several years regarding psychologists prescribing. Several arguments are found in the literature in support of prescriptive authority for psychologists. Those in favor argue that if psychologists are authorized to prescribe medication, an increased number of mental health services could be provided to underserved populations (DeLeon, Sammons & Sexton, 1995; DeLeon, Fox & Graham, 1991). Others point out that prescriptive authority would allow psychologists to further secure their niche within the mental health field (Hayes & Heiby, 1996). Those opposed to prescriptive authority argue that psychologists do not have the medical background necessary to safely prescribe medication (Moyer, 1995). Others have concerns that if psychologists begin to prescribe, they will give in to the "quick fix" of medications, thus abandoning purely psychological interventions (Bush, 2002). Given the relevance and timeliness of the prescriptive authority issue, the current review provides a comprehensive examination of the major issues surrounding prescriptive authority for psychologists. This review summarizes the arguments for and against prescriptive authority. It considers the attitudes of interest groups and their influence on the prescriptive authority debate. It provides information regarding the legislative movement in various states towards gaining prescriptive authority. It also describes the prescriptive authority training programs that currently exist around the country. It concludes with suggestions as to how some of the issues related to the prescriptive authority debate could be addressed using evidence attained throughout the review as a whole.

This book was released on 2011-01-20 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many factors affect treatment options for children and adolescents with mental health problems, including age, severity of symptoms, financial and time constraints, and access to qualified professionals. With the limitations of managed care plans and the shrinking pool of pediatric psychiatrists, the trend is toward pediatricians prescribing psychotropic medicines. Pharmacologically trained psychologists can offer valuable assistance to pediatricians caught in this predicament. Tackling fundamental questions of when to treat as well as when and why to refer young patients, the Pediatricians and Pharmacologically Trained Psychologists examines commonly occurring pediatric conditions requiring joint treatment; reviews theoretical models of consultation and collaboration; and spotlights professional issues typically arising from these team efforts. With pertinent clarity and detail, this volume offers in-depth discussion in these key areas: Collaborative treatment of mental health conditions, including mood, disruptive, anxiety, and eating disorders. Collaborative treatment of medical conditions, focusing on gastrointestinal disorders and diabetes. Changing clinical procedures in states that have enacted prescriptive authority for psychologists. Expanding roles for pharmacologically trained psychologists practicing in states that have not enacted prescriptive authority for psychologists. Medical psychology in the pediatric hospital. Integrative care in rural settings and on the reservation. The collaborative future: brain marker technology, training paradigms, and more. Pediatricians and Pharmacologically Trained Psychologists is a must-have reference for a broad range of researchers, professionals, and graduate students, including psychologists, pediatricians and other child mental health clinicians as well as nonphysician prescribers, such as nurses, physician assistants, and pharmacists.
