Homework: Clinical Preparation Journal- Counseling and Psychotherapy

Instructions

As you have learned from several of your readings, choosing a therapy modality is not always an easy or straightforward process. Multiple observations and assessment methods are often employed to reach a diagnosis and then match a therapy that has been shown to be effective.

You will record specific components of the therapy modality/modalities we are learning for the week. This will help solidify your new knowledge and allow you to make correlations between therapy modalities and to which diagnoses they can be applied or when they can be utilized in practice.

Instructions

For each therapy modality you will identify the following:

Therapy criteria:

A. Identify the therapy modality by name.
B. Identify the originator (creator) of the specific modality.
C. Identify a specific diagnosis or population this modality is especially helpful with.
D. Note specific focus, emphasis, and/or goals of this modality.
