This workshop will focus on the new updates to the DSM as reflected in the DSM-5-TR and provide participants with an opportunity to apply what they have learned. An overview of the purpose of the DSM will be provided along with highlighting the difference between the DSM-5 and the new DSM-5-TR edition. An introduction to the new disorder in the DSM-5-TR will be explored in depth along with the two disorders that have been renamed. You will learn about all the new symptom codes along with new specifier changes and how to use them. Using case vignettes, participants will engage in assessing and diagnosing for various disorders. Case vignettes reflect the presenting issues indicative of the effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic and feature clients with lived experiences that naturally embody intersectionality, diversity, equity and inclusion.
