Scott T. Meier is Professor in the Program in Counseling/School Psychology in the Department of Counseling, School, and Educational Psychology at University at Buffalo. His major research and teaching areas focus on psychological assessment and testing (particularly progress monitoring and outcome assessment), research methods (particularly program evaluation), and counseling and psychotherapy skills (particularly the integration of case conceptualization and assessment with intervention).

Meier's Incorporating Progress Monitoring and Outcome Assessment into Counseling and Psychotherapy is a must-read for students attending clinical and counseling training programs and practitioners who want to practice responsibly by maximizing patient well-being. Its major accomplishment is to lay out the case for monitoring, necessary principles and procedures of monitoring, as well as its limitations. It is packed with both the science of monitoring and the clinical wisdom needed to turn this science into action on behalf of those who turn to mental health professionals.
