Case Conceptualizations/Case Writeups
Hello. I'm a first year Phd student. We are expected to do case conceptualizations for class based on real patients. I'm not talking about Clinical Assessment reports, or Testing reports. Ideally we can use these when we apply for externships next year... However... I have NO idea what they are supposed to look like. What makes a good case conceptualization? What would someone who reads these at an externship site be looking for? What would they flat out reject? Also are there examples of these anywhere? I feel extremely lost and the feedback that I get from professors and supervisors is basically along the lines of "It's more of an art" and "It's not exactly like an academic paper or informal writing it's somehwere in between." Those statements are somewhat helpful but I still feel very lost.
