The Adult Psychotherapy Homework Planner, 6th Edition functions as a dedicated clinical workbook delivering structured client activities for individual treatment plans.

Specific chapters deliver targeted tasks for mood and anxiety disorders, including anxiety, bipolar depression, bipolar mania, and anger control problems. Additional units supply practical assignments addressing behavioral and relational challenges, such as impulse control disorder, antisocial behavior, low self-esteem, family conflict, and intimate relationship conflicts.

Authored by Series Editor Arthur E. Jongsma, Jr. alongside Timothy J. Bruce, this workbook provides ready-to-use clinical tools across 400 pages. The structured layout fits the daily professional workflows of psychologists, counselors, social workers, psychiatrists, and therapists treating adult populations.
