Offers useful strategies for creating rapport between the linear-focused DSM® and the circular causality approach of systems-oriented clinicians.
With a focus on clinical applications, this unique textbook for students of diagnosis, family systems, counseling, and other mental health disciplines demonstrates how to use the DSM® to aid assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and intervention from a relational perspective. With detailed descriptions, the textbook fosters greater understanding of interpersonal problems associated with onset, progression, and expression of psychiatric systems while incorporating the specific parameters of parent, child, sibling, extended family, and significant other issues in overall clinical formulation.
The textbook delves deeply into relational and cultural features, family systems assessment,family systems interventions, and ethical and legal implications when working with identified DSM® disorders. With each chapter focusing on a specific diagnosis or category of diagnoses, this book analyzes all DSM® domains, discusses the impact of diagnoses on the entire family, and introduces various assessments and interventions.
