Assignment Task: Discuss how you would use the data collected by your colleague to guide the next step in the planned change process or to inform future work with clients.
In my internship I am working with clients that are struggling with substance abuse disorder, I had the pleasure of working with a client that was struggling with alcoholism and anger management. The client entered rehab because it was court mandated for her to see her son. The client was struggling with staying in the program and following the house rules.
The presenting problem that this client is facing is alcoholism and anger management.
I would use grounding techniques such as positive affirmations to help with managing her anger, and to stay focus when tempted to drink. I would also implement community connections through a meeting, to reinforce sobriety.
The Resilience Scale (RS) is a 25-item scale rated on a 7-point Likert scale measuring two factors: personal competence, and acceptance of self and life; it was originally developed on a sample of older women.
I chose the Resilience scale because it focuses on personal competency, making the client focus on what they are able to do, and also this scale focuses on acceptance of self and life. My clients had to accept that the choices they made had negative results. Need Assignment Help?
