Create a brochure that you can hand your friend that might be provided at a legitimate mental health provider. It should list various symptoms and reasons people may wish to seek therapy and include advice as to what to look for in good psychotherapy and how to avoid bad and pseudoscientific therapies.

Instructions: This week’s project addresses pseudoscience. Suppose one of your friends has a mental health issue and may need to undergo psychotherapy. Focus on the specific mental health issues, and include a description/symptoms of the mental health issue. Pretend you are advising your friend generally about what to look for in a good psychotherapist and how to avoid bad and pseudoscientific therapies. State what you would tell your friend along with the reasons for your suggestions. In order to respond, your project may take your choice of the following 4 formats listed below. The length of the format you choose is up to your discretion; it must be long enough to address the issue, advice on what to look for, and how to avoid bad/pseudoscientific therapies without including superfluous information. Choose a format that works best for you so that you can clearly express your understanding of the content requested.
