The course will include an advanced, in-depth examination of the use, limitations, benefits, and multiaxial assessment of the DSM-IV-TR.  Understanding the tools and techniques associated with assessment and the development of treatment plans, as well as the role of psychopharmacology in counseling are major goals of this course.  Diagnostic challenges and treatment approaches with multicultural populations will be emphasized.  Students will also be exposed to a critical analysis of diagnostic systems and current treatment approaches.
