Abstract:
I was responsible for establishing the post graduate clinical psychology training program at QUT in 2002. The training was founded upon an active program of knowledge acquisition, clinical research and practice, and in later years, the consistent application of client outcome monitoring. The outcome monitoring of client outcomes lent itself to a number of research studies aimed at identifying factors related to the identification of characteristics of the most effective therapists and processes. I will take this opportunity to outline several studies in which I have been involved, with the aim of gaining a better understanding of factors which contribute to effective client outcomes. This will be followed by a more in-depth discussion of implementing routine outcome monitoring methodologies which have demonstrated their utility to enhance client outcomes. Challenges in implementing such systems will be discussed, as well as ethical issues concerning our duty of care to clients in the training of clinical psychologists.
