Also, choices have been made on broad applicability, rather than to begin by focusing on currently hot topics.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the rationale has been to encourage input from therapists with a wide range of experiences and knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>A number of other topics will be added in the near future, depending on interest and the ability of the author to write the material. There needs to be a better plan for expanding the knowledge base than the current one &ndash; here suggestions would be welcome.<\/p>\n<p>The plan is for this process to continue, adding new areas as people with special interests and skills make contributions to the site.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually we should expect to show connections among the various treatment areas addressed. This has been started in the New Patient map. Very early on in dealing with a new person, you see a need to move in a direction determined by his\/her symptoms, complaints, strengths, etc., and your own skills and interests. One such point has been integrated into the map for New Patient.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Current Status of Various Maps [January, 2013<\/u><\/strong><u>]<\/u><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:.2in;\">\nThe alcohol treatment map is in the best shape of any of the maps, although lacking in recent comment and suggestions from specialists in the field.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:.2in;\">\nThe treatment map for anxiety and panic is in good startup form. Much needs to be decided about how to add new information.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:.2in;\">\nThe new patient map is brief. In all the maps, there has to be a balance between providing enough information to be helpful and not providing so much that it gets unwieldy. This is especially a problem with the new patient map, which has to be broad enough to cover all patients &ndash; they haven&rsquo;t yet been classified by major issue &ndash; and what may be helpful for one therapist can easily be a distraction to another.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:.2in;\">\nOther maps should appear soon &ndash; especially one on depression and grief, and one on eating disorders. After that, plans are relatively open.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Expanding the Maps<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The plan for now is to rely on bulletin boards as a primary way of communicating.
