Psychosocial Clinical Interview 
You will go to CONTENTS on Blackboard and select CHAPTER 15 PSYCHOLOGICAL REPORT
CHAPTER and read it. You will also go to https://swapassessment.org/wpcontent/uploads/2013/04/CDI-patient-version.pdf (CLINICAL DIAGNOSTIC INTERVIEW) and
read this as well. You will utilize these resources to structure your Integrated Report for your
simulated client.
You have two choices of who your simulated client would be. You will either work with Will from
the movie GOODWILL HUNTING https://youtu.be/RAgcmfcGD88 or SOPHIE from “In
Treatment” SEASON 1. If you are an Amazon Prime member you can access In Treatment for
free.
You will complete the following sections in your Integrated Report (written in a narrative form and
not bulleted):
Demographic Information (e.g. name, age, date of birth, ethnicity, address, gender, address, etc.)
Conduct the Intake Interview (Structured or Unstructured). This is the opportunity to note general
appearance, demeanor, body language, eye contact, verbalization, tone, inflection, volume, track
train of thought behavior, smooth topic transitioning/halting, etc. The purpose is to form a clinical
impression of the client personality or what problems they may be suffering from. The above
listings provides cues on the types of questions one would ask in the interview. Some answers
will be evident in the movie or episodes, others may warrant a bit of embellishment/inference.
Please take special note of any subtle factors or behaviors that your client may be exhibiting that
they may be both aware or unaware of. So in essence determine the following: Presenting
problem, specific symptoms, detailed history of the problem, social life/family history/life story,
drug/alcohol history, academic history, employment history, medical history, cultural context to
consider, etc.
Determine what assessment(s) you would give. Please provide a rationale/justification for the
assessments that you chose and articulate it within the report.

should be included in your summary. Please utilize your DSM5.
