Which diagnoses would you consider?
What is your case formulation? That is more comprehensive than just the diagnosis. For example lets say you are considering Major Depression as a Diagnosis. Your case formulation may be something like this: this patient has suffered significant recent loses in his life, and in the context of possible biological vulnerabilities (ie; history of maternal depression) and limited psychological resources he has developed a depressive condition. In the case formulation you may also include possible interpersonal, psychoanalytic or existential dynamics if you consider them important.
