QUESTION 1: Discuss the effectiveness of psychotherapies in the treatment of mental health problems.

Review the literature, and discuss the findings of two outcome studies that assess the effectiveness of specific psychotherapies on the diagnosis you would like to discuss.
Make sure that you critically review the articles and refer to why outcome studies are important.
It is preferable that you present outcome studies that compare outcomes of different psychotherapy approaches
QUESTION 2 : The dimensional model of personality disorders in DSM-5 includes 5 higher-order domains (negative affectivity, detachment, antagonism, disinhibition, and psychoticism) and 25 lower-order facets, or constellations of trait behaviors that constitute the broader domains.

Do not describe the domain or principles of the chosen approach; just refer to issues that are relevant to you arguments.
For example, psychodynamically oriented therapist works on transference relationship, this work helps the client to ………………………….as regards to antagonism; for cognitive behavioural approach working with cognitive biases is very important this work helps the client to……………………………………………………….. as regards to antagonism
