Abstract

Objective: This paper highlights the importance of psychiatric formulation and provides guidance to those learning the art of formulation. To achieve this, we explore the guidance on formulation that has been previously published in Australasian Psychiatry, identify the key components of psychiatric formulation, and outline an approach to comprehensive formulation in routine clinical practice. Conclusion: Formulation is the foundation of good psychiatric practice but presents a considerable challenge to the novice practitioner. Understanding the ingredients of formulation and a method for meaningfully putting these together will guide deliberate practice to learn the art of psychiatric formulation.
