A. Precip it ant s:
Precipitants are large scale event s t hat m ay play a significant ro le in precipitat ing
an episode of i l lness. A typical exam ple is a depressive episode precipit ated b y
m ultiple events, including fai lure to be prom ot ed at w ork, death of a close
fr iend, and mar ital str ain. In som e cases (eg., bipo lar disor der, recurr entdepression w ith str ong biological featu res) there m ay be n o clear psychosocial
precipi tant. If n o psychosocial precipi tant s can be ident i f ied, not e any ot her
featur es of t he patient s histo ry th at m ay help explain the onset of i l lness.
The ter m activating situat ions, used in t he next p art o f t he Case Form ulation,
refers to sm aller scale event s and si tuation s that stim ulate negative m oods or
m aladapt ive bur sts of cognition s and behaviors. For example, the patient w ho is
depressed f ol low ing the precipi tating events described above m ay experience
w orsening of her depr essed m ood w hen shes at w ork, or w hen shes w ith her
husband, or w hen she att ends a class she used t o att end w ith h er fr iend w hodied.
Which precipitants do you hypo th esize played a significant ro le in th e
development of t he pat ient s sympt om s and problem s.
B. Cross-sect i onal view o f cu r ren t cogn i t ions and behav io rs:
The cross-sectional view of th e case form ulation includes observation s of t he
predom inant cognition s, emo tion s, behaviors (and physiological reaction s i f
re levant) th at the pat ient dem onstrates in th e here and now (or demonstrated
prio r t o m aking substant ive gains in t herap y). Typically the cross-section al view
focuses more o n t he surface cognition s (ie., autom atic thou ghts) that areidenti f ied earl ier in th erapy t han un derlying schemas, core bel iefs, or
assum pt ions th at are the centerpiece of the longitudinal view described below .
The cross-sectional view should give your conceptual ization of how th e cognitive
m odel appl ied to t his patient early in treatm ent. List up t o th ree current
activating situ ations or m em ories of activating situ ations. Describe the patient s
typical autom atic th ought s, em ot ions, and behaviors (and physiological reaction s
if relevant) in th ese situ ations.
C. Lo n gi t ud in al vi ew o f co gn it i on s an d b eh av io r s:This por t ion of t he case con ceptu alizatio n fo cuses on a longitudinal perspective
of t he patient s cognitive and behavioral functioning. The longitudinal view is
developed ful ly as therapy pro ceeds and t he t herapist uncovers underlying
schem as (core beliefs, rules, assum pt ions) and end ur ing patt ern s of b ehavior
(compensatory strategies).

W hat are th e patient s key schem as (core b el iefs, rules, or assum pt ions) and
comp ensatory behavioral str ategies? For patient s w hose pre -mo rbid histo ry w as
not significant (eg., a bipolar patient w ith no history o f developm ental issues
th at played a role in generation of m aladaptive assum pt ions or schemas)
indicate t he m ajor bel ief(s) and dysfun ctional behavioral patt erns present o nly
during the current episode. Report developm ental antecedents relevant t o th eorigin or m aintenance of t he pat ients schemas and b ehavioral str ategies, or
off er suppo rt f or your hypo th esis th at th e patient s developm ental histo ry is not
re levant to the current d isorder.
D. St rengt hs and asset s
Describe in a few w or ds t he pat ient s st ren gths and assets (eg., ph ysical health ,
int ell igence, social skil ls, suppor t net w or k, wor k hist ory, et c.).
E. Wo r k in g h yp ot h esi s (su mma ry of co n cep t u al izat i o n)
Briefly sum m arize the pr incipal features of the w orking hypot hesis th at directed
your tr eatment intervent ions. Link your wo rking hypothesis wi t h th e cogni t ive
m odel for t he patient s disorder (s).
I II. Treatm ent Plan (Suggested # o f words: 250)
General Instructions: Describe the prim ary featu res of your t reatm ent plan using the

B. Treat m ent goals
Indicate t he goals for t reatm ent t hat have been developed col laborat ively wit h
the pat ient.
