Therapist's Guide to Case Conceptualisation

A practice standard: one formulation grammar, eight modality lenses.

A formulation should stay alive: written, shared, and revised as the work moves.

A compact practice standard for writing case conceptualisations that actually get used. A ten-step master guide builds the formulation, eight modality lenses show how the behavioural, cognitive, dialectical, schema, interpersonal, motivational, acceptance and emotion-focused traditions each read the same person, and a quick-reference matrix with a blank master template makes the standard reusable across a practice. It ends with the patient's own plain-language version of the formulation.
