Unlocking Complex Minds: Collaborative Assessment Strategies for Complex Clinical Presentations

Dr. Larry Brooks

Description: This presentation will provide clinicians examples of collaborative psychological assessment in complex cases. Rather than a straight lecture, the talk will be interactive and pull on the audience’s expertise to get to an accurate diagnosis. The examples will be based on real cases and show how psychological testing can answer questions using techniques that differ from the typical psychotherapeutic setting.

Learning Objectives:

Compare and contrast differences in the report of a well-done versus a poorly done psychological evaluation.
Explain how diagnostic questions affect test selection.
Identify two or more methods to determine whether patients are credibly representing their symptoms or if they may be seeking secondary gain.
