Case Study: Conjoint Session

Decent Essays
The therapist met with the client for the individual session to discuss the tier work for the next week and to plan for the conjoint session on Friday with his parents. The client stated, “I feel down because I did not tier up this week, but I know also that I need to learn more some of the life skills and coping skills, so I need to be in tier four for one more week.” The client stated, “I know the transition time between the tier four and tier five will take more than a week because the expectations are higher.”
The client reflected that he likes the previous conjoint session because he felt that for the first time he is able to face his fears and talk to his parents about what he is expecting from them when he graduates from the program.

    Co-facilitated session plan For the purpose of this assignment, I propose to approach the hypothetical planning of a co-facilitated session with another party in three stages; pre-session, during the session and post- session. Pre-session I would consider the pre-session planning of a co-facilitated session with another party to be an imperative part of the process. As we would both need to work collaboratively throughout the process to help the group achieve goals, the main objective would be for us to meet well in advance of the meeting in order to get to know each other and establish a trusting and respectful relationship, whereby we would welcome constructive feedback and have the ability to work through any differences which may arise.…

    This time gave me an opportunity to undertake reflective listening through active listening which according to Rogers (1975) in his “client-centered” therapy argues that it encourages the client to share the information in more depth than if I was only asking directive questions. This enabled me to gain information when the client brought out the underlying issues including those that I had not thought about. The active listening also improved my relationship with the client since I was able to express acceptance by avoiding any expression of disagreement or judgement thus making him open up and also trust me as his couselor. This method also left me with enough time to explore and diagnose the issue thus noting the new ways of approach to the…
