DSM-5 Diagnoses and Criteria - NOTE: Please do not attempt to diagnose yourself or others you know on your own--only licensed professionals can provide a diagnosis. Even if the criteria of a given disorder seem like they fit you or someone you know, that does not necessarily imply a clinical diagnosis. We provide a link to the DSM-5 on this page so that clients who have already been diagnosed can learn more about their diagnoses and bring related questions into sessions.
