The DSM is the primary text for diagnosing mental health disorders in the United States. It provides descriptions of and assessment criteria for all mental disorders currently recognized by the American Psychiatric Association, and thus it is vital for mental health practitioners to be familiar with its contents and utilization. While the purchase of a physical copy of this text is not required, it is strongly recommended since the DSM is utilized as a core reference source for clinical work.
