This course on psychopathology is designed to give students the foundation for assessing both patterns, and factors creating those patterns, of diagnostic categories presently in use in the mental health system today. We will look at symptoms, etiology, and treatment – taking into consideration, views from different theoretical frameworks as well as increasing awareness of cultural issues. Particular attention will be paid to issues of co-occurring disorders including addictions, as well as issues surrounding crisis management and disaster response.
