FIU BPD Assessment Diagnosis and Treatment Recommendation Paper
Towards the end of the semester, I would give you two (2) clinical scenarios and I will like for you to write a 2-3 page summary FOR EACH in which you will include your assessment, diagnosis and treatment recommendation. I will give you very specific guidelines together with both Case Histories later on the Term. You will turn your assignment with both Case Studies clearly indicating Case#1 and Case #2 in a WORD DOCUMENT. Please follow directions, as the biggest issue I keep having with students is not adhering to guidelines. Briefly, your assignment needs to include the following:The methods and strategies you would use in order to perform the initial assessment.Which diagnoses would you consider?What is your case formulation? That is more comprehensive than just the diagnosis. For example let’s say you are considering ‘Major Depression” as a Diagnosis. Your case formulation may be something like this: “this patient has suffered significant recent loses in his life, and in the context of possible biological vulnerabilities (ie; history of maternal depression) and limited psychological resources he has developed a depressive condition”. In the case formulation you may also include possible interpersonal, psychoanalytic or existential dynamics if you consider them important.What is your treatment plan?What else would you have liked to know about this patient, which was not given to you in the case scenario, and you think it may have been very useful in order to reach a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan?This is not a difficult task, but requires a little thinking from your part. The important point is that I need you to show me how you do the assessment, followed by a diagnosis, good case formulation and a reasonable treatment plan. Don’t write more than 3 pages FOR EACH CASE STUDY (about 1000-1200 words for EACH). You will have this task towards the end of the semester (see schedule below) and it will be worth a 20 % of your total grade. As with any other assignments, this is your own work, not a team effort. Sharing or copying another student’s work will result in a failing grade for the class.OK, as promised this is the Clinical Case Study. This is actually a very simple assignment and typically, if you follow directions, you would do very well. Read the directions from the Syllabus (which I have included here for your convenience) and follow the format I give you in the bottom of this page. Basically for each Case Study you will need 3 pages; the first one with title, name etc; the second one with an outline covering 5 topics (see below) and the third one is the one you will expand a little more, and that’s it! EASY, relax and you will do just fine. Please turn in BOTH Clinical Studies in ONE WORD document indicating Case Study #1 and Case Study # 2. I will grade each Case Study and give you a total grade for both. So, let’s say you get 8 points for the first one and 7 for then other; you will get 15 points out of possible 20 points.Please follow this direction because when I have to grade dozens of these assignments, in addition to over a hundred papers THE FORMAT makes it easier for me to read and understand; if I have problems tracking you, that will not be good for your grade JFor additional help as you try to decide what disorder you are contemplating, you just need to consider everything up to week 8 (Personality Disorders) and the chapter in schizophrenia, which as you would see it is unlikely J. I know you will do very well.CLINICAL CASE STUDYAs per your Syllabus:Clinical Case Study Towards the end of the semester, I would give you two (2) clinical scenarios and I will like for you to write a 2-3 page summary FOR EACH in which you will include your assessment, diagnosis and treatment recommendation.

You may also discuss any particular interpersonal or intra-psychic dynamics pertaining to any of these two cases. Please no more than 4 or 5 paragraphs.I want you to relax, you are in control in this assignment, you need TO DEDICATE a little time and thought and you will be fine Turn it in ON THE DUE DATE, AND YOU ARE DONE! First Clinical Case:Clarisse is a 26 years old white single female, who comes to see you to get help with her “bad mood”. She heard you are “very good Psychologist” and wants to try therapy. On your initial interview, you observe she is a very attractive female, perhaps too seductively dressed for a doctor’s office. However, she was pleasant and engaging and did not appear in obvious distress.She tells you she has been “feeling down” for a while. You asked her to be more specific and she says that as long as she can remember, she has been unhappy. When she was teenager she had a tough time, she was rebellious, experimented with drugs, did bad in school and had multiple sexual partners. She always felt insecure of herself, couldn’t figure out who she was, and felt always very emotional. Her relationship with others was always complicated, as she felt she either loved them or hate them. She says that with time, things got better and eventually went to college and graduated from a nursing program, although her unhappiness and insecurities remained.She is however, unhappy. She complaints about men, and expressed remorse over her history of “failed relationships”. She tends to idealize men and then despises and hates them. Her anger is a problematic issue with her and often she feels out of control. She explains that things typically start really good and she often thinks the guy is the “best in the world”, but soon she begins to feel “empty” and develops very strong jealousy feelings, which end up destroying the relationship. She further confesses to you, she “gets crazy when that happens and in a couple of occasions she has become violent with her boyfriends. She says she has “low self-esteem” and at times she “is not even sure who she is”. This has been going on for years now and she can’t get out of this pattern. She is not eating well and has lost weight, but otherwise, she is active and able to work without problems.She reported a history of conflict with her parents and rarely talks to them these days. She would like to “feel normal” and be happy, but she does not know how to do so. Second Clinical CasePeter is a 40 year old male who came to the office with complaints of anxiety, sadness, nightmares, and difficulties concentrating. He also reported poor memory, low libido, feelings of guilt, despair, hopelessness and helplessness and occasional suicidal thoughts. In addition, he has difficulties in his marriage. He had been married for 10 years to a woman 15 years his senior. His wife is a very attractive woman, who looks younger than her age. For over three years he has been unable to have sexual intimacy with her, but he added he always had sexual difficulties in his marriage to her. Yet, he says he loves her and she is “the most beautiful woman in the world for him”. He had quitted his job after suffering a severe stress reaction when his boss ridicule him in front of other managers and told him he would never amount to anything.His mental status revealed a slightly overweight male superficially pleasant, but guarded. He was restless and constantly moved in his seat. His mood was anxious, depressed and angry and his affect constricted in range. He denied psychotic symptoms and his thinking was linear and goal directed. He reported occasional suicidal thoughts with no plan.In terms of history he reported a lonely and difficult childhood. His father was aloof and uninvolved and his mother was physically and sexually abusive of him. Her sexual seduction and subsequent abuse started during late elementary school and lasted until early adolescence. As soon as he could, he left his home, joined the Marines and began his adult life. He was able to do well in the military. Upon discharge he went to college graduating with a business degree and found a job in management. He had a couple of long-term relationships while in college, but never thought about marrying until he met his wife. However, during his first major professional job, a “sadistic, mean boss” drove him to the verge of suicide. He left that job and since then (now 5 years) he has been unable to go back to work. He has difficulties with sleep, overeats, has frequent nightmares, intense startle response, and his anxiety is “over the top”. He has been on various SSRIs medications with only limited success, and wants therapy to help him sort out his problems.

CSM The Scene Where Marion Is Driving to Fairvale California Discussion
See textbook end of chapter 3 Focus on Mise-en-Scène: Psycho
NOTE: Students must post before seeing replies.
Let’s look at how various design elements work together in a single image from an early scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 suspense film Psycho. This shot is from an encounter between Norman Bates, the lonely psychopath and proprietor of a motel that has seen better days, and Marion crane, an unlucky guest who will soon be killed by Norman. The scene is set in the parlor adjoining the motel office where the two meet for a snack; they discuss Norman’s hobby, taxidermy. It seems at first an innocuous little conversation between a shy young man and an attractive woman who is clearly out of his league. But there is more to this little conversation than meets the eye, as implied by the mise-en-scène. A close reading of this shot tells us a lot about Norman and foreshadows his next, rather unhappy encounter with Marion in the bathroom of her motel room.https://ng.cengage.com/static/nb/ui/evo/index.html?deploymentId=5677062231652711641112541260&eISBN=9781305410404&id=475406768&nbId=1159050&snapshotId=1159050& (Links to an external site.)

DISCUSSION QUESTION
Choose one still from the film, Psycho, and upload the still for us to see and analyze the basic elements of the mise-en-scène. Use the questions below to analyze how the basic elements of mise-en-scène contribute to the visual style and story content of a film.
For a close analysis, it is best to pick a single image.
Begin by thinking about the overall effect of the mise-en-scène in the image.
What do you learn about the story and characters—without the use of dialogue?
What emotional effect does the mise-en-scène have on you?
Now, focus on ONE area below and discuss (the set, costume/makeup/hair, blocking and performance, or lights).
3-1 The Set
Take note of the interior and exterior architecture, furnishings, and props in the scenes.What larger location for the story is suggested by these elements?What time period is evoked?What does the set tell you about the characters’ personal lives and interests, working conditions, or social and economic status?Does the set design represent an imaginary place and, if so, how might this be connected to a larger creative argument?Is the set deliberately theatrical or artificial, and why?Are there any key props in the scene, and how are they used? Do they provide clues to the action or have symbolic meaning?
3-2 Costumes, Makeup, and Hair
If you are familiar with the off-screen look of the actors in this scene, how have they been transformed by wardrobe, makeup, and hair?What can you tell about a character’s social standing, occupation, and attitude toward life from his or her appearance?Does the character change over the course of the film, and what role does costume, makeup, and hair play in commenting on this transformation?
3-3 Blocking and Performance
Where are the characters sitting or standing in relationship to one another? What does this positioning tell you?If the characters move around the scene, what meanings do those movements convey?Does one character visually dominate the scene?Do any of the human figures function purely as design elements in the scene? If so, what role do they play in the larger meaning of the scene?
3-4 The Lights
Does the lighting direct your eyes to a certain figure or object?Has the filmmaker used under lighting or top lighting to dramatic effect?Are there sharp contrasts between light and dark areas in the frame?Is a character shown in hard or in soft light?Does the scene appear to have been shot in natural light, and is that choice an aspect of the film’s meaning?

Discussion Question
MUST BE 6+ SENTENCES
Have you ever read something that you suspected was fake news? In this week’s reading you will learn about strategies for determining if a source is credible. One of those strategies is the CRAAP Test. Currency: Is the information up to date? Relevance: Is the information relevant to your research needs? Authority: Who is the source of the information? Accuracy: How reliable and truthful is the information? Can the information be verified? Purpose: Why does the information exist? How can the CRAAP Test help you when you look at news and articles in the future?

He had quitted his job after suffering a severe stress reaction when his boss ridicule him in front of other managers and told him he would never amount to anything.His mental status revealed a slightly overweight male superficially pleasant, but guarded. He was restless and constantly moved in his seat. His mood was anxious, depressed and angry and his affect constricted in range. He denied psychotic symptoms and his thinking was linear and goal directed. He reported occasional suicidal thoughts with no plan.In terms of history he reported a lonely and difficult childhood. His father was aloof and uninvolved and his mother was physically and sexually abusive of him. Her sexual seduction and subsequent abuse started during late elementary school and lasted until early adolescence. As soon as he could, he left his home, joined the Marines and began his adult life. He was able to do well in the military. Upon discharge he went to college graduating with a business degree and found a job in management. He had a couple of long-term relationships while in college, but never thought about marrying until he met his wife. However, during his first major professional job, a “sadistic, mean boss” drove him to the verge of suicide. He left that job and since then (now 5 years) he has been unable to go back to work. He has difficulties with sleep, overeats, has frequent nightmares, intense startle response, and his anxiety is “over the top”. He has been on various SSRIs medications with only limited success, and wants therapy to help him sort out his problems.

CSM The Scene Where Marion Is Driving to Fairvale California Discussion
See textbook end of chapter 3 Focus on Mise-en-Scène: Psycho
NOTE: Students must post before seeing replies.
Let’s look at how various design elements work together in a single image from an early scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 suspense film Psycho. This shot is from an encounter between Norman Bates, the lonely psychopath and proprietor of a motel that has seen better days, and Marion crane, an unlucky guest who will soon be killed by Norman. The scene is set in the parlor adjoining the motel office where the two meet for a snack; they discuss Norman’s hobby, taxidermy. It seems at first an innocuous little conversation between a shy young man and an attractive woman who is clearly out of his league. But there is more to this little conversation than meets the eye, as implied by the mise-en-scène. A close reading of this shot tells us a lot about Norman and foreshadows his next, rather unhappy encounter with Marion in the bathroom of her motel room.https://ng.cengage.com/static/nb/ui/evo/index.html?deploymentId=5677062231652711641112541260&eISBN=9781305410404&id=475406768&nbId=1159050&snapshotId=1159050& (Links to an external site.)

DISCUSSION QUESTION
Choose one still from the film, Psycho, and upload the still for us to see and analyze the basic elements of the mise-en-scène. Use the questions below to analyze how the basic elements of mise-en-scène contribute to the visual style and story content of a film.
For a close analysis, it is best to pick a single image.
Begin by thinking about the overall effect of the mise-en-scène in the image.
What do you learn about the story and characters—without the use of dialogue?
What emotional effect does the mise-en-scène have on you?
Now, focus on ONE area below and discuss (the set, costume/makeup/hair, blocking and performance, or lights).
3-1 The Set
Take note of the interior and exterior architecture, furnishings, and props in the scenes.What larger location for the story is suggested by these elements?What time period is evoked?What does the set tell you about the characters’ personal lives and interests, working conditions, or social and economic status?Does the set design represent an imaginary place and, if so, how might this be connected to a larger creative argument?Is the set deliberately theatrical or artificial, and why?Are there any key props in the scene, and how are they used? Do they provide clues to the action or have symbolic meaning?
3-2 Costumes, Makeup, and Hair
If you are familiar with the off-screen look of the actors in this scene, how have they been transformed by wardrobe, makeup, and hair?What can you tell about a character’s social standing, occupation, and attitude toward life from his or her appearance?Does the character change over the course of the film, and what role does costume, makeup, and hair play in commenting on this transformation?
3-3 Blocking and Performance
Where are the characters sitting or standing in relationship to one another? What does this positioning tell you?If the characters move around the scene, what meanings do those movements convey?Does one character visually dominate the scene?Do any of the human figures function purely as design elements in the scene? If so, what role do they play in the larger meaning of the scene?
3-4 The Lights
Does the lighting direct your eyes to a certain figure or object?Has the filmmaker used under lighting or top lighting to dramatic effect?Are there sharp contrasts between light and dark areas in the frame?Is a character shown in hard or in soft light?Does the scene appear to have been shot in natural light, and is that choice an aspect of the film’s meaning?
