In this episode of Licensure Lifeline, we dive into the art and science of differential diagnosis. We start with a fascinating look at the history of differential diagnosis, from early psychiatric misdiagnoses to the structured approach we use today. Then, we walk through a realistic case study of Marcus, a client whose symptoms overlap with multiple disorders, requiring careful clinical reasoning. You’ll learn how to differentiate between Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar II, Generalized Anxiety, and more, using key assessment tools and diagnostic criteria. Plus, we break down NCMHCE-style vignette questions to help you sharpen your test-taking skills. Whether you’re preparing for licensure or refining your clinical practice, this episode will boost your confidence in making accurate, ethical diagnoses.
