Part 1: Case Studies

Identify the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria that you notice in the case studies below and explain how the client meets the criteria. Include the diagnosis that these symptoms are related to. Your response to each case study should be 50 to 75 words.

  1. Tom      is a 30-year-old male who was near the World Trade Center during the 9/11      attack. He witnessed horrific scenes, including people jumping from the      World Trade Center. Since that day, he has had nightmares. Whenever a      plane flies overhead, he has the feeling that he needs to run to a secure      place. He has thought of moving out of New York City because he finds      himself reliving the event every time he is down in the area of the 9/11      attack.
  2. Jennifer      is worried about her friend Mark, who is a 19-year-old male who recently      started hiding in his apartment bedroom. He told Jennifer that the      government could hear everything he says, and does so in every room but      his bedroom. More recently, Jennifer has visited him and found out he is      not going to work, as he is feeling very low and depressed. She also      recognized that he is smoking more pot than usual.
  3. Angela      is a 35-year-old human resources manager and mother who has found that      methamphetamines allow her to work long hours and also gives her enough      energy when she is home to manage her household and children. More      recently, she has started to think that her boss has been planning to fire      her, even though there is no visible sign that her work has been suffering      due to her use. When she passes by his office and he is on the phone, she      is sure he is talking about her and his plans to fire her.
  4. Justin      is a 20-year-old college student who recently started lining his single      dorm room with tin foil. He thinks that his neighbors have been listening      in on his phone conversations and wants to prevent their listening with      the use of this foil. He has stopped going to classes and interacting with      his friends. His friends are very worried about him and decided to go to      the dean to talk to her about his behavior.

Part 2: Treatment Scenarios

Imagine that you are working with a client that has been diagnosed with a psychotic disorder. Select a psychotic disorder from the DSM-5 and discuss the approach you would you use for treating this client.

How will you tell if the client suffers from a psychotic disorder as opposed to a substance-induced disorder?

Imagine that you are working with a client with co-occurring posttraumatic stress and substance use disorders. How would you approach treating this client? What special considerations should you make?
