Intervention Outline: Individual Therapy

Improved Essays
Intervention Outline PE is an individual therapy that is highly flexible and can be modified to fit the needs of clients from diverse backgrounds. PE is specifically designed to help clients process traumatic events and reduce trauma-induced psychological disturbances, making it one of the most effective interventions for individuals experiencing rape-related PTSD (Penn Behavioral Health, 2017). While the PE treatment program is structured, it can be modified in order to best assist an array of individuals. The most important aspect of the PE treatment program is building a strong foundation with the client that is based on a strong therapeutic relationship and clear, compelling rationale for treatment (Foa, 2007). The PE treatment program

    There are many kinds of research that has been shown to be effective with criminal offenders for correctional treatment. One such treatment is group counseling which is the one that most mental health professionals use and usually have anywhere between eight and ten prisoners and will have meetings many times per week. With group counseling it approaches behavioral and psychological contentions that interpose in many disorders and demeanors, for instance, substance abuse by advocating behavioral adjustment by means of communications with other people who also cope with the same contentions (Kupchik, 2007). Another treatment that is used is specialized groups which accommodates substance abuse, anger management, parenting, and many other kinds of issues.

    Preventative measures and early intervention help social workers resolve issues before they reach crisis point, therefore minimising the onset of long-term problems and the need for extra support (Wilson et al, 2011). Not only do social workers identify and address issues which could, potentially, impact lives, but they alleviate the barriers by introducing supportive services which are tailored to individual needs. During difficult periods, self-esteem and motivation to do anything is usually low. This can lead to dependency as people neither want to, nor feel capable of, overcoming challenges alone. Assistance, however, can reverse this pattern and encourage independence by helping people adapt to changes in life.…

    Individuals may also try to find other ways to drown out the voices in their heads, including quick releases. These quick releases, such as alcohol and non-prescribed drugs are the main choices for individuals with Schizophrenia (Kerr & Paterson, 1999). Making sure that the individual does not consume either of these substances is very important. Alcohol paired with medication can often cause drowsiness, which affects their ability to operate (Kerr & Paterson, 1999). Substances, such as marijuana and other street drugs, often intensify their hallucinations and delusions and should ultimately be avoided (Kerr & Paterson, 1999).…

    Interpersonal violence against women is endemic in our society. Thus, it is estimated that 14% to 20% of women will experience rape at some point in their lives; that 25% to 28% will be physically abused in a sexual-romantic relationship; and that 8% to 24% will be stalked by someone they know or by a stranger. When these statistics are added to the 25% to 35% likelihood that the average adult woman has been sexually abused as a child, it is clear that the epidemiology of interpersonal violence against women is a pressing social issue (Briere & Jordan, 2004). Equally concerning is the association between these various forms of victimization and mental health issues in women. Female survivors of sexual trauma are vulnerable to a wide range of…

    The first video I viewed was Carl Rogers and Client Centered Therapy. In Client Centered Therapy, according to Rogers, the therapist needs to be genuine and congruent while displaying a nothing hidden attitude (1965). Prior to his session with Gloria, he said, “realness in me equals realness in her” (1965). It is important in Client Centered Therapy for the therapist to display attending skills by actively listening to what the client is saying; thus allowing them to explore deep within themselves. I did notice during the video that Rogers sat leaning forward, a style used in active listening.…

This writer often hears that you must put others needs before the needs of yourself, which is usually true. However, neglecting personal needs to meet others needs in an unhinged way has left this writer depleted, which made it hard for this writer to care family and friends, but most importantly consumers who depend on this writer. Counsellors are at constant risk of burnout from having to deal with the maladjustment of clients in an environment that is often highly emotionally charged (Walker & Matthews, 1997), because counsellors are the primary tool of counselling intervention (Feltham & Horton, 2006), they influence…
