Application: Case Conceptualization

When a client comes into your office, this person has certain expectations, some idea of what his or her problem is, and hopes of getting some answers, making changes, and/or obtaining relief. This week, you learned about the importance of developing a case conceptualization to help formulate successful treatment planning.

Developing a case conceptualization includes defining the problem, identifying and evaluating outcome goals, and planning a treatment. This process follows the sequence of scientific thinking: problem definition, hypothesis formulation, hypothesis testing, data collection, results, and recommendations. Keep this sequence in mind as you prepare to complete this week’s Application Assignment.

To prepare for this assignment:

  • Review Chapters 1, 2, and 3 in Clinical Process: From Conceptualization to Treatment Planning, paying particular attention to the steps necessary for case conceptualization development. Discern the many gender and multicultural considerations outlined in these chapters.
  • Think about how the development of a case conceptualization follows the sequence of any good research model.
  • Study “The ABC and Person-In-Environment Assessment Model” from Chapter 1 in Clinical Process: From Conceptualization to Treatment Planning, and consider how using such a graph might help you understand your client more fully and, therefore, develop a more useful case conceptualization.
  • Review the complex elements involved in developing a treatment plan, keeping in mind the various gender and multicultural factors outlined in Chapter 2 from the course textbook, Clinical Process: From Conceptualization to Treatment Planning.
  • Carefully review the Case Conceptualization Exemplar and the Case Study Exemplar: Linda, paying particular attention to Linda’s presenting issues and how they are represented in each section of the Case Conceptualization Exemplar.
  • Consider the importance of case conceptualization and think about what each section of the Case Conceptualization Exemplar represents. Think about how empirical research may influence your decision making.

The assignment: (2–3pages)

  • Describe major components necessary to develop an investigation of evidence-based practice and analyze how EBP resembles the scientific method.
  • Explain the value and importance of case conceptualization.
  • Analyze each section of the Case Conceptualization Exemplar.
