The emergence and rapid growth of pharmacotherapy in professional psychology practice has the potential for a significantly broad audience. Written by psychologists for psychologists, this unique resource spells out the essential psychobiosocial areas of emphasis involved in prescribing psychotropics within a clinical psychology practice. In addition, the book provides an introduction to the qualifying exam for psychologists seeking specialty training in psychopharmacology: The Psychopharmacology Examination for Psychologists (PEP). The simulating PEP-like practice test, available on the companion CD-ROM, allows psychologists-in-training to gain confidence by developing mastery over the exam-specific challenges while helping to reduce anxiety by exposing students to real-like simulations.
