Abstract
Many have recognized the power of teams in various arenas. A sports team is a prime example where interdependence is apparent. For example, in a football team, each position has a set of skills and a knowledge base that accompanies it. Each position must depend and rely on the skills and knowledge base of the other positions in order to accomplish their collective goal successfully. This outlook can inform all teams, especially interdisciplinary administrative and clinical mental health teams, despite their complexity. Because of the strength of this model, this chapter focuses on team-based treatment in mental health. It places particular emphasis on a pertinent structure of community mental health centers (CMHCs) (composed of administrative and clinical teams), the importance of multidisciplinary treatment teams in this context, the problems that multidisciplinary treatment teams often face, and possible solutions for teams to function effectively.
