Wonderful interview. Thank you very much for sharing it. In my country (Colombia), the topic of case formulation has been dominated by psychologists with a strictly behavioral approach. In my opinion, this has made it unnecessarily complicated, lacking in parsimony, and explained in a rather obscure and pretentious manner. This is what I love about American psychologists and scientists-they tend to be more parsimonious and practical. The conceptualization presented at minute 34:29 is simple, beautiful, yet also comprehensive. I hope to use Dr. Tracy's work to influence a different trend in my country regarding case conceptualization. One that is evidence-based but also parsimonious and practical.
Unfortunately, I’ve observed many clinical colleagues who are obsessed with “evidence” eschew case formulation in favor of dx-based procedures or techniques.

Thanks for your comment! I agree Tracy's integrative formulation map is eloquent yet practical. Highly recommend his APA book on this topic!
