What has changed is my perspective toward managed care. Her book is a must-have, in my opinion." Patrick Healy, MFT, Board President, California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (Click here to read the rest of Pat's comments.) "This is a great book. It is well written, well-organized, and clear. It is the GPS therapists need for navigating the insurance maze." Jeffrey K. Zeig, Ph.D., Director, Milton Erickson Foundation "I'm new to private practice and was somewhat clueless about the world of managed care. This book simplifies the process and breaks it down, step by step. I'm constantly referring back to it, especially when a potential new client wants to use their insurance. This book has definitely helped to make managed care more manageable for me." Kari Lloyd-Fisher, MFT "I highly recommend this book to any therapist who is either currently working with managed care insurance or one who is contemplating doing so." Karen L. Smith, MFT "A must-have book for any therapist who is considering becoming a managed care provider. Learning to navigate the maze not only helps you build your practice, but can help you provide services to a broader population." Yvonne Blockie, MFT
