Abstract: A study was made of the attitudes of a multidisciplinary staff of an evening mental health clinic. The focus of the clinic is on short-term treatment, and one of the main purposes of the study was to investigate the reactions of staff members to this type of treatment orientation. Results indicated that staff members, when considered as a whole felt that their confidence in their short-term treatment skills and their belief in the effectiveness of a short-term, interdisciplinary treatment center increased over the course of the first year the clinic was open. These results were not consistent across disciplines, and possible reasons for this inconsistency were discussed.
