Abstract
My Psych.D. portfolio will cover the area of adult mental health presentations, principally mood and anxiety disorders. These two disorders constitute nearly 70% of the referrals to the adult mental health team within which I work. While my case study write-up details how I typically work with such presentations, the remainder of my portfolio will focus predominantly on the interpersonal dynamics of mood and anxiety disorders. I hope that the findings of both my critical reviews and my thesis will add to my existing clinical knowledge and to that of other clinicians working in the field of adult mental health.
