In this free webinar, Dr. Martinez will talk with us about the history of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), and will give us an overview of changes in the most recent version, the DSM 5. She will discuss how clinicians use the DSM 5 to determine diagnosis, how diagnoses are used in treatment, as well as some limitations of DSM 5 diagnosis.
