Feedback Informed Treatment
The Nuances of Using a Session Rating Scale
 
Barry L. Duncan, Psy.D.’s work in consumer rights and client feedback led to his partnering with Dr. Scott Miller in developing the Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS), which has been implemented across the US and Canada, as well as in 20 countries that include national implementation in couple and family centers in Norway. PCOMS is included in SAMHSA’s National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices.

 

“The first and foremost way to become a better therapist is to add feedback to your work — period. Collecting systematic feedback improves outcomes more than anything since the beginning of psychotherapy. “The first and foremost way to become a better therapist is to add feedback to your work — period.
