Please no plagiarism and make sure you are able to access all resources on your own before you bid. The main references come from the American Psychiatric Association. (2013) and/or Kress, V. E., & Paylo, M. J. (2019). You need to have scholarly support for any claim of fact or recommendation regarding treatment. Grammar, Writing, and APA Format: I expect you to write professionally, which means APA format, complete sentences, proper paragraphs, and well-organized and well-documented presentation of ideas. Remember to use scholarly research from peer-reviewed articles that are current. Sources such as Wikipedia, Ask.com, PsychCentral, and similar sites are never acceptable. Please remember that resources used must be from peer-reviewed resources such as academic journals. The assigned textbook and the DSM-5 are required for all assignments (i.e., cite and reference the textbook and DSM-5 in every assignment). As a general rule, web sites are not peer-reviewed except those which are online journal articles. Therefore, it is advisable for you to avoid using these websites as resources. Walden Library offers many peer-reviewed articles that pertain to the topics covered. While not required to use these articles, you should select a couple that you find interesting and which supports your critical thinking and analysis.

Please follow the instructions to get full credit for the discussion. Please look at all the attachments. I need this completed by 10/26/20 at 7pm. 

Discussion - Week 9

Diagnosis of Ka-Sean

For this Discussion, you continue to put your diagnostic skills into practice by rendering a diagnosis on a client, Ka-Sean, and receiving feedback from your peers. Remember, when developing a case conceptualization, it is important to consider issues of gender, culture, family, and other stressors that may impact treatment.

To prepare for the Discussion:

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources.
  • Review the example case of Caden from the Week 6 Learning Resources.
  • Review the case study of Ka-Sean found in Chapter 5 of Kress and Paylo (2019).

By Day 3

Post a brief summary of Ka-Sean in the following format:

  • Case Conceptualization (Note: Include specific information about client symptoms and presenting concerns.)
  • Diagnostic Impressions (Be sure to use the ICD-10 code, name of the disorder, and all specifiers.)
  • Rationale for Diagnostic Impressions (Include the diagnostic impressions using the DSM-5 to link the client’s symptoms to the diagnostic criteria for each diagnosis that you render. If you do not render a diagnosis, you still must use the DSM-5 to explain why you chose not to render a diagnosis.)

Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.
