1. For the client chosen in your particular movie (Ordinary People), provide a complete and accurate diagnosis. Give code, diagnosis, and relevant descriptors and specifier(s). * Please note

that you must come to a consensus within your team as you will be turning in one copy of this exam to the professor with all of the names from the team listed on the title page. (Think about this from the perspective of being a member of an interdisciplinary treatment team.)

2. Make sure to justify your diagnosis by linking the specific symptoms to the criteria

they satisfy.

3. Identify and describe the character’s ecological system (e.g., do they have a job, family,

friends, hobbies, religion, spirituality, etc.). Identify/list any client strengths across the
