Overview As Clinical Mental Health Professionals, we are trained to diagnose clinical disorders present in our clients. Before we treat actual clients, we hone our skills using case studies. For your final project, you will select a person (historical/non-fictional; celebrity/public figure; living/dead) to evaluate and diagnose. You will apply your knowledge from the entire course to the development of this project. Graduate work and no less will be accepted! This Final Project will help you to synthesize and display your understanding of assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, family involvement, and legal/ethical issues. You should also listen to the lecture, review supplemental materials, and use the rubrics as guides to help you complete the assignment. This assignment will count toward your final grade and is due by Day 7. It is worth 200 points. Directions For the Final Project, you will select a person for whom you will develop a case study with diagnosis and treatment recommendations. The person can be a public figure but a non fictional character from a book, a movie, or a TV show (historical/nonfictional; celebrity/public figure; living/dead). Cases presented in your texts or in the course are NOT eligible for use in this project. Your Final Project will contain the following sections: • Introduction to the topic (Note: in APA style, the Introduction does not get a separate heading) • Identifying Information: Age, gender, ethnicity, relationship status, and vocation of the individual. • Presenting Problem: The individual’s primary problems or concerns. • History of the Present Problem: When did the problem begin? How severe is the problem, i.e., does it impact the individual’s work, relationships, or leisure pursuits? Are any stressful life events associated with the presenting problem? • Personal and Family History: Information about family background, relationship history, developmental history, education/work history, medical history, substance abuse, and/or previous counseling/psychiatric experiences that may be related to the presenting problem. • Diagnosis: See template for format. • Justification: Include descriptions of the individual’s signs and symptoms to support your diagnosis. • Treatment: Report the recommended treatments for the disorder and evaluate the individual’s prognosis for improvement. • Legal and Ethical Considerations: Comment on any legal or ethical concerns in the diagnosis and treatment of this individual. • Conclusion Your paper should be 10-15 text pages (including title or reference pages). Use your textbooks and the DSM to support your writing. You may also use information from other scholarly sources such as articles found in the Lamar library. Depending on the person you select, information from non-scholarly resources may be relevant as well. Be sure to write your paper using APA style and cite all references accordingly. An APA formatted template has been provided for your use here and in Course Resources. Submit your completed assignment to the course in Blackboard for grading.
