NCE / CPCE Counselor

Category - Fundamentals

When assessing a client’s progress toward counseling goals, a clinician should __________.
  1. Ask the client how they are doing
  2. Refer to the treatment plan
  3. Ask other clinicians how they think the client is doing
  4. Not worry about assessing progress; it’s all about the journey
Explanation
Answer: B - Referring to the initial treatment plan where treatment goals were determined is an excellent way to assess a client’s progress toward those goals. Is treatment on track or has therapy taken on a life of its own and wandered away from the initial treatment goals? A clinician might discuss these goals and progress towards them with the client as part of the therapeutic process, but would first refer to the treatment plan. Remember confidentiality.
