After addressing his post-traumatic stress disorder, I would focus my efforts towards the deeper-rooted aspects of Sal’s mental state. Antidepressant medication may be continued to lift Sal’s depression, and cognitive therapy would be implemented to allow Sal more accurate estimations of the rewards and consequences of his actions. The somatization disorder may be more difficult to eliminate (as it tends to last for many years), but I believe effective psychotherapy would ultimately help his condition. Because Sal has a number of disorders, it is very important to keep monitor Sal’s progress and setbacks and to not to rush the course of treatment. I believe that with a solid understanding of Sal, his abnormal behaviors, and his treatment options, I can lead Sal to a favorable prognosis.
