DMT-6010: Psychopathology and Treatment Planning DMT Perspectives

This course addresses individual psychopathology from a variety of perspectives: biological, developmental, cultural and interactional. It will provide students with a broad theoretical base for understanding psychopathology from not only an individual descriptive, symptomologic perspective as presented in the DSM-IV (V), but also from a contextual, systemic perspective including developmental hallmarks, familial patterns and sociocultural contributors. Students will learn to perform individual, relational and larger systems assessments, including but not limited to a mental status exam, a medical genogram and diagnosis using the DSM-IV (V).
