Complete discussion 6 Dylan

Please read the case summary and watch the video of the case of Dylan on the Client Case Studies landing page. Then, respond to the following using headings to match the content in each bullet point:

  • Share two open-ended questions you would want to ask Dylan and (or) his primary caregiver during your assessment that will invite them to expand upon their perspective of the presenting problem. Consider ways to phrase questions that will help you assess the biological and social risk factors for conduct and oppositional defiant disorders. Provide a brief rationale for each question.
  • Identify a potential diagnosis for Dylan, including the psychosocial and environmental problems (Z codes) that would be important to provide a holistic description of the context of the focus of treatment.
  • Include any information you learned from using the Differential Diagnosis tool, which you can find in the Differential Diagnosis by the Trees reading list.
