A client was diagnosed with PTSD after two traumatic car accidents. He reported wanting to be able to drive again and has achieved much of his goal, but you recognize that he could go further. When coordinating around his treatment, it is important to consider:
  1. When he needs to go back to work
  2. How much time has passed since his last progress
  3. What needs to happen in order to consider the trauma to be eliminated
  4. How much progress the client is comfortable with in a short period of time
Explanation
Answer - D - With clients who have suffered from PTSD, it is often very important to consider how quickly the recovery process is moving for them. If the recovery process moves too quickly, the anxiety that exists for some PTSD victims can be too high, triggering relapse. A personalized timeline of recovery could be helpful.
