Assignment 1: Case Conceptualization, 50% of the final grade (Due class 6)

This 8–10 page PDF paper will be based on interviews with a student playing the role of client. The case conceptualization will follow the structure outlined in the Beck textbook, on pages 379 – 385, with a few exceptions described in the assignment criteria. By completing this case conceptualization, students will practice clinical skills such as engagement and collaboration, analysis of the client’s behavior and cognitions in the context of cognitive behavioral theories, conducting a comprehensive assessment, and exercising ethical decision making in treatment selection.
