MHC 610 Comprehensive Case Conceptualization Section One Draft Guidelines and Rubric

Overview: This activity will allow you to reflect on past work regarding case conceptualization. These final projects are complex, so it’s essential that you have time to digest these materials. This draft is an opportunity for you to have your questions and concerns addressed by the instructor. Prompt: In this activity, you will begin exploring and working with the Comprehensive Case Conceptualization Template (CCC Template). In Week Two, you will provide a draft of the following components of the first section: theoretical orientation and integrated personal approach, background information, mental status exam, comprehensive overview of presenting concerns, cultural considerations, theory driven case summary, and summary of conceptualization presented to the client. Include questions or requests for specific feedback. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

I. Theoretical Orientation and Integrated Personal Approach: Summarize your integrated personal approach or single theoretical orientation to counseling and describe the background information of the client.

II. Comprehensive Overview of Presenting Concerns: Describe the client’s presenting concerns, triggers, promoters, maladaptive patterns, developmental influences, protective factors, co-occurring disorders, and MSE.

III. Cultural Considerations: Describe the client’s cultural identity, cultural stressors, cultural influencers, and personality patterns. IV. Theory Driven Case Summary: Provide a theory driven case summary, and summarize the conceptualization and address the level of care and advocacy

the client will need. V. Review additional components of the CCC Template and treatment planning form and identify any sections that remain unclear. Identify questions or

requests for specific feedback related to that component.

Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Please use the Comprehensive Case Conceptualization Template for this assignment. You can find this template in the required resources for Week One.
