One of the responsibilities of a supervisor is providing opportunities for professional development. In this assignment, you will play the part of a supervisor engaged in this very activity. There have been questions and disagreement lately about the planning and application of interventions for a variety of clients. Since your clinic has seen a recent uptick in clients suffering from various forms of depression, you decide to research and set up a presentation for a one-hour "lunch and learn" titled "Decision Making in the Application of Interventions."
Using a new tool you have discovered (the Biopsychosocialspiritual Assessment used in Unit 1, linked in Resources), complete an assessment for Carlos, in the Case Vignette at the beginning of Chapter 5 in your textbook.
Then, in your slide deck:
Evaluate recent literature on best practices for treating major depression.
Describe any cutting-edge interventions.
Choosing an intervention different from that used in the text, apply it to the scenario.
Finally, justify the decision for using that intervention based on:
Ethics.
Culture.
Diversity.
Finances.
Service availability.
Client preferences.
