Is It Ethical????

Is it ethical???

Scenario 2: “Fatima is self-employed with her own
private practice. She has recently gone on a marketing
blitz, with new ads in the phone book and on the
internet. She has developed her own website that
describes her services and promotes her work. Fatima
has many satisfied clients and has asked them some of
them to provide testimonials for her great service so she
can include them on her website.”

Treatment Planning

Let’s Practice…

Give an example of a problem statement, goal statement,
objective, and intervention for the following clinical issue:

behavior is getting out of his seat during class
 Depression symptom of hypersomnia for 42 year old
woman with Dysthymia whose problem behavior is
being late to work due to the symptom.
 Panic disorder in a 19 year old male post a severe car
accident whose problem behavior is missing college
class due to fear of driving
Exercise

Role Play

 Role play a client/counselor interaction where the
counselor helps the client identify a personal problem
of living, as described by Reid’s Problems of Living,
found in figure 6.1 on page 196. It will be easier and
faster to use yourself for content, but please be
appropriate in the selection of the problem you share
 Assist the client in identifying one goal they would
like to accomplish in overcoming this problem.
 Set up a contract with the client following the
components found in figure 6.2 on page 199.
