Diagnostic Developments and the DSM-5-TR:  A Deeper Dive, November 2022 Workshop

Diagnostic Developments and the DSM-5-TR:  A Deeper Dive
Presented by Greg Neimeyer, PhD

Workshop Level: All levels

This workshop is for licensed psychologists who want to learn about the DSM 5 Text Revision

 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The DSM-5-TR introduces a wide variety of conceptual and criteriological revisions and additions to its diagnostic categories. Keystone diagnostic revisions include the addition of new ICD-10 codes and disorders. Prolonged Grief Disorder gains official recognition, and Suicidal Behavior and Non-Suicidal Self-Injury receive credentialed ICD-10 codes. New neurocognitive, mood, and depressive disorders are introduced, as well, and accompanied by key conceptual shifts in familiar disorders. These inclusions are joined by diagnostic revisions or clarifications to dozens of additional disorders. Among the signature contributions of the DSM-5-TR is its comprehensive attention to issues of race, equity, and discrimination, attention that ramifies throughout the text and its supplemental assessment tools. Designed for the practicing professional, this workshop provides an overview the full range of changes in the DSM’s most recent revision and illustrates select aspects of those changes with clinical videos, assessment measures, and structured interview protocols.

 Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Discuss the relationship of the DSM and the ICD2. Identify at least five diagnostic additions or revisions in the DSM-5-TR
  2. Discuss the rationale for at least three of the diagnostic manual’s novel inclusions or revisions
  3. Discuss the DSM-5-TR’s attention to issues of culture, diversity, and discrimination
  4. Identify at least 3 assessment tools that offer potential utility for use in clinical practice
  5.  Distinguish grief from depression
  6.  Discuss the prevalence and criteria for Prolonged Grief Disorder
  7.  Discuss the rationale for the change to Gender Dysphoria from Gender Identity Disorder
