Application: Cognitive-Behavioral Orientation—Case Conceptualization
In Week 4, you created a case conceptualization using short-term psychodynamic therapy. This week, you will evaluate a new case study, Kyle, and create a case conceptualization using a cognitive-behavioral therapy (REBT, behavior, or cognitive) of choice.
To prepare for this assignment:
Review Case Study: Kyle. (attached below) Think about conceptualizing Kyle and his presenting issues through the lens of a cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Review your Instructor's feedback on your first case conceptualization, Sam. (My instructor noted this on my last assignment, “discussing specific empirical support for your treatment approach and fully addressing contextual considerations would have added to your paper.” So be sure to take these into consideration and include for this assignment.)
Download and review the Case Conceptualization Exemplar and Case Conceptualization Template. (attached below)
Review Chapters 1, 2, and 3 of the text, Clinical Process: From Conceptualization to Treatment Planning, if needed.
Consult your DSM-5 to formulate a preliminary diagnosis for Kyle's presenting issues.
Conduct a brief literature review (2–3 articles), searching for empirically supported treatments related to the cognitive-behavioral interventions you are considering.
Review this week's Web sites for empirically supported treatments.
