Read and reflect on the article How Clinical Diagnosis Might Exacerbate the Stigma of Mental Illness by Patrick Corrigan (found on BB) and write a one to two page paper addressing the following:
- Briefly summarize the article and the author’s main point(s). Pay special attention to his suggestions for improving on the DSM 5.
- What is your opinion about what the author is presenting? Do you agree or disagree and what is your thinking on what he is saying?
- What are the implications for your work with clients or for your field of practice?
The paper should be approximately 2 pages in length, double spaced with 12 point font and 1” margins. Please include a cover page with your name and the name of the assignment. As with all written assignments it is expected that students use APA style for references and pay special attention to grammar, punctuation, spelling, and how ideas are organized and presented.
