Of challenge to mental health counselor's (MHCs) is the management and treatment of personality disorders. This article will elaborate on the etiological development of Cluster C personality disorders (avoidant, dependant, and obsessive-compulsive), review the self-maintenance functions they provide, and review the cognitive-behavioral, group, and psychodynamic treatments for each of the three Cluster C personality disorders. The central aim of this manuscript is to assist MHCs in better understanding biological and environmental antecedents, treatment interventions, and to ensure that personality dynamics are not overlooked in the treatment process.

The American Psychological Association’s Society of Clinical Psychology recently adopted the “Tolin Criteria” to evaluate empirically supported treatments. These criteria better account for strength and quality of rapidly accumulating evidence bases for various treatments. Here we apply this framework to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). Following procedures outlined by Tolin and colleagues (2015), Step 1 included an examination of quantitative systematic reviews; nine met inclusion criteria. Step 2 evaluated review quality and effect size data. We found high-quality evidence that CBT-I produces clinically and statistically significant effects on insomnia and other sleep-related outcomes. Based on the Tolin Criteria, the literature merits a “strong” recommendation for CBT-I. This report is a working model for subsequent applications of the Tolin Criteria.
