“Understanding the Client’s Biopsychosocial Profile and its Dynamic in the Clinical Practice: A Comprehensive Assessment and Intervention Perspective”

Develop a midterm written assignment on assessment of a case from your practice in field work. A detailed outline follows:

• Present a brief biopsychosocial asessment of the client (including relevant data about him/her and the presenting problem). Please include class, race, culture, religion, sexual orientation, and any other factor that has played a role in the presenting problem.
• How has using a psychosocial assessment of the client’s situation helped you to understand the client’s breadth and depth of functioning?
• What is the dynamic relationship among the following:
  • client’s past and current themes/challenges?
  • client’s conscious and unconscious issues?
  • client and worker’s current and transferential relationship?
  • Include excerpts from practice to illustrate these aspects where appropriate.
• If you used any short-term approaches, please describe how it informed your assessment and practice interventions.
