Critical Approaches to the DSM

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, also known as the DSM 5- TR, looms large in mental health services. As the principal guide for psychiatric diagnoses, the DSM seeks to provide a common language and standard criteria for mental health treatment. It is also an evolving text, that has been the subject of ongoing critique and revision since it’s original publication. Join recent Bachelor of Social Work graduate Olivia Baker and faculty member Danielle Jatlow, as they discuss some strengths and limitations that Olivia explored in her independent study on the DSM.
