The practice that assist a therapist in determining a client diagnosis and the proper treatment plan that would resolve the issue surrounding the clinet’s diagnosis is Case Conceptualization and Treatment Planning.

These four concerns form the body of existential psychotherapy and make up the the basis in which a therapist conceptualizes a client's problem in order to develop a method of treatment.
