Synopsis

DSM-5-TR Desk Reference – Quick Access to Diagnostic Criteria and ICD-10 Codes

Get fast access to every DSM-5-TR diagnostic criterion and ICD-10 code with this portable desk reference and pocket guide. Designed for psychiatry residents, medical students, nursing students, psychology students, PMHNPs, therapists, counselors, medical coding students, and those preparing for exams such as NCLEX, USMLE, COMLEX, EPPP, and other mental health licensing exams.

PHYSICIAN-AUTHORED — REVIEWED & BACKED BY BOARD-CERTIFIED PSYCHIATRISTS.
Expertly reviewed by board-certified psychiatrists to ensure clinical accuracy, clarity, and real-world applicability in daily practice. This sets it apart from many psychiatry books created by non-clinicians or anonymous writers.

COMPACT & PORTABLE — EVERY ONE OF THE 20 DSM-5-TR CATEGORIES
Includes full diagnostic criteria, subtypes, specifiers, and coding notes across all categories in one lightweight, easy-to-carry reference.

CLEAR CODING + SPECIFIERS FOR EVERY DISORDER
Full DSM-5-TR diagnostic criteria with precise ICD-10 codes, perfect for documentation, billing, differential diagnosis, and quick clinical decisions.

DESIGNED TO PAIR WITH THE DSM-5-TR WORKBOOK
Use this desk reference for instant criteria lookup and reinforce learning with realistic case scenarios and detailed rationales.

SMART BUY – FULL COVERAGE, LOWER PRICE
Get the core diagnostic criteria and ICD-10 codes you need at a much lower price than traditional psychiatry books and references. A concise and comprehensive psychiatric diagnosis resource. Ideal when preparing for psychiatry tests, board exams, or clinical rotations.

This psych pocket guide is designed to work alongside the full DSM-5-TR by APA. While the official manual provides comprehensive diagnostic details, it is not built for quick lookups. This guide gives you fast access to the criteria you need so you can focus on diagnosis, clinical decisions, differential diagnosis, and exam preparation without flipping through dense pages. It is also useful for students and professionals studying topics in abnormal psychology and psychopharmacology.

This DSM-5-TR desk reference has been reviewed by board-certified psychiatrists and mental health professionals with extensive expertise in DSM-5-TR criteria to ensure clarity, precision, and clinical reliability. It also serves as a practical DSM-5-TR learning companion for counselors, therapists, and social workers who need fast access to criteria during sessions or supervision. It works well for documentation, billing, differential diagnosis, and as a DSM-5-TR handbook of differential diagnosis.
