Adler University Evidence Based Treatment Protocol Discussion

The development of treatment protocols for mental health disorders for justice-involved individuals must be based on evidence-based practices. As a behavioral health clinician, you need to be able to analyze evidence-based practices for mental health intervention as well as treatment.

Use one of the cases that you chose for your Week 3 Summative Assignment.

Continuing in your role as an intern with the psychological treatment center for a local correctional facility, assume your supervisor has asked you to assist in the development of a treatment protocol based on research.

Include the following in a 1,050-word summary of a proposed evidence-based treatment protocol:

• Research and describe at least 2 possible evidence-based treatment protocols for the justice-involved individual.
• Propose 1 of the treatment protocols you researched and provide support for your reasons for choosing this treatment protocol.

Cite a minimum of 4 peer-reviewed journal articles to support your summary.

Format your summary and references according to APA guidelines.
