A Psychiatric Rehabilitation Skills Assessment

Rick, I would like to follow up on our conversation yesterday after our meeting. Last weekend was very chaotic to say the least.

This method can be used with learning academics, increasing communication, increasing desirable behavior, and improve social skills.

Depending on the client’s needs, mental capacity, family support and resources all play a factor in which theories to implicate in order to achieve the best outcome. Success of a theory can be determined based on the improvements of the client from the beginning of the study to the end. There is no one particular theory that is always guaranteed to work for each and every client. However, given multiple of focal points allows a social worker the ability to combine and mix and match these theories to achieve an accomplishment of their client’s needs. The purpose of this paper is to identify and explain two different theories. The history of each theory, how they work, what the focus of each would be and how to apply them when appropriate. Also, another purpose of implementing a theory is gain a better understanding of some client’s problems. The theories I have chosen are Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Ego Psychology.

Whether the counselor practices in a school environment, a private practice, agency, or any other mental health setting, the assessment needs to play a vital role. Assessment involves knowledge with identifying statements and actions, and collecting what may be needed in order to grasp what will truly help counsel all clients, whether the therapist is counseling an individual, a group setting, couples with marriage issues and other complications within a relationship, and other family issues, understanding assessment will instill a continuous improvement in every counseling setting CITE

By going beyond the diagnostic label, and encouraging recovery as an option, the healthcare team is equipping the individual with the needed tools to function as a productive member of society. With this, the purpose of this paper is to explore the roles of the individual, family, as well as community, with concepts taken from the psychosocial rehabilitation model when it comes to creating a treatment plan for those diagnosed as having a mental or emotion illness. This writer will then create an individualized care-plan based on evidence found.
