Lisa is a 14-year-old adolescent who skips school on a regular basis. She normally misses at least two days per week and reports just staying home in bed. The teen complains of being tired all the time and cannot function at school most days. A clinical social worker will identify a target behavior conducting a thorough assessment and formulating a treatment plan. What type of problem solving should be initiated by the social worker?
  1. Authoritative
  2. Self-centered
  3. Collaborative
  4. Independent
Explanation
Answer: C - The clinical social worker should initiate collaborative problem solving. The social worker and the client together will determine what the ultimate outcome should be with therapy, and the client will work towards that goal. If Lisa is included in the process of formulating her own treatment plan, she may be better engaged in treatment.
