NCE / CPCE Counselor

Category - Assessment and Diagnosis

Do assessment practices stop once the counseling begins?
  1. Yes, assessment is a one-time process that is performed before counseling begins.
  2. Yes, assessments are too difficult to score and any further testing attempts will confuse the process.
  3. No, assessment is an ongoing process throughout counseling.
  4. No, assessment takes place at the beginning of each session.
Explanation
Answer: C - No, assessment is an ongoing process throughout counseling and does not stop once the counseling begins. A client may develop new symptoms during counseling, which may or may not be detected without further assessment beyond the initial testing. A counselor can then alter the treatment plan for the client to address the new issues.
