This paper examines the role of counselling in the diagnosis of mental health disorders, and focuses the discussion on a particular patient. The paper begins by describing the diagnosis, signs and symptoms of the mental health disorder of the patient. The effects that the diagnosis can have on the individual are discussed, as well as the effects it can have on the friends and family of the individual. The approach to recovery is examined, and the paper outlines the six meanings of recovery produced by the NIHME, as well as their twelve principle steps for recovery.
