Report
I also chose this case and the DSM-5 diagnosis you provided, Social Anxiety Disorder (F40.10), seems fitting based on the information about Mr. Scott. It aligns with his fear of other people causing significant anxiety and discomfort, leading to avoidance of social events and standing in lines. Addressing this diagnosis can greatly impact both his social life and his wife's well-being. Alternative Measurable Goals can be: Goal 1: Scott will identify and challenge negative thought patterns associated with anxiety. Target: 6 weeks from our first session. Measurement: Scott will keep a thought journal for six weeks, recording anxious thoughts and identifying negative thought patterns. By the end of the target period, he should be able to challenge and reframe these negative thoughts with more rational and positive alternatives. Goal 2: Scott will attend a small social gathering with his wife. Target: 10 weeks from our first session. Measurement: Scott will participate in at least one small social event, such as a casual dinner with a small group of friends, within 10 weeks from our first session. This will be measured through his self-report and his wife's observations.
