CFT-5500: Systemic Assessment and Treatment Planning

This course addresses assessment and treatment planning from a variety of perspectives: biological, developmental, cultural and system. 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-5, 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-5.
