My best advice is to keep the case simple.Please be mindful of spelling and grammar, and include citations to support your clinical decisions.Start early with this, and perhaps do a section at a time. Don't Leave this for The Last Minute! Part I (2 pages) 1) Identify and describe in one paragraph the main issue you are focused on in your work with this individual. This would have been arrived at after an exhaustive assessment process in collaboration with the individual.

How is the space set up, how are the chairs arranged, Set up the narrative by identifying and labeling when the counselor speaks, and when the client speaks. Use parentheses to indicate any verbal or non-verbal factors in the communication between counselor and client. Examples: John-Client: (with raised voice and angry tone with muscles all tensed) said_________ or John-Client (spoken almost in a whisper with sad affect, hunched over, while looking down at the floor) responded__________ Counselor (leaning forward, communicating empathy) stated____________ The script should be based on the information you have already provided regarding this case, and what you are working on today. *Based on what you’ve outlined in your case description focus on incorporating any emotional, cognitive, behavioral, or systemic interventions covered this semester into your script that might be applicable. Consider your goal and your stage in the counseling process in your choice of interventions. I need you to demonstrate some basic understanding of these interventions and how they are actually practiced. Part III (1page) Analyze your mock session using course materials to support your clinical decisions: · Explain your process as it occurred in your mock session based on the case factors you have documented · Identify the interventions used in the mock session, and why they were chosen · The client’s reactions to these interventions based on what has been indicated in the text regarding these · Did you achieve what you set out to achieve in this session? Progress made? · Any challenges the counselor or the client need to address based on the session · Focus for the next session, what’s the next step?any homework
