The nature of the treatment plan and evidence-based interventions Case Concept

 

The nature of the treatment plan and evidence-based interventions should coincide with the needs of the client and the theoretical orientation utilized. Additionally, treatment goals should be SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely). Using your theoretical foundation of Person-Centered Theory coupled with your preferred theoretical orientation described in Part II, respond to the following elements:

· Short-term SMART goal for treatment

· Interventions, approaches, and techniques to work towards this goal

· Mid-range SMART goal for treatment

· Interventions, approaches, and techniques to work towards this goal

· Long-term SMART goal for treatment

· Interventions, approaches, and techniques to work towards this goal

Your discussion of Treatment Planning should include complete-sentence, bulleted responses to each of the prompts.

Ethical and Legal Considerations

Nearly all clients and every situation present the possibility for ethical concerns and dilemmas. It is important to be proactive and intentional in our consideration of what those might be. Ethical challenges can arise in a number of ways, including transference/countertransference, court-ordered counseling, informed consent, boundary violations, poor self-care, limits of confidentiality, and mandated reporting, to name a few. Using the ACA Code of Ethics, reflect on your work with the client and respond to the following:

· Describe potential ethical dilemmas present or potentially present

· Identify your own barriers or challenges that may complicate the ethical dilemma

· Explain the steps you should take to be intentional and proactive in your ethical approach

Your discussion of Ethical and Legal Considerations should include 2 well-formed paragraphs.

Social Change Implications

The end of your work with a client should not be the end of your work. Each client impacts us as we impact them. Reflect on your client and their circumstances. Consider their efforts in relation to their successes and failures. Keeping in mind all of the information you have considered for this case and all the insight you have gained, respond to the following elements:

· Address the systems and barriers the client experiences that impacted the current situation and outcomes

· If changed or removed, identify what systems and barriers could impact positively upon this individual in the future

· Discuss how your work with this client has informed your understanding of a larger social challenge or barrier

· Identify steps you could take to effect positive social change in relation to this social challenge or barrier
