Grand Canyon University Problem Identification Practice Exercise Discussion

 

I’m studying for my Psychology class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Read and complete the “Problem Identification Practice Exercise.” How did your problem identification process go? What went well? What could have been better? What difficulties did you run into in identifying the problem? What specific skills would be beneficial when helping a client identify a problem to address in counseling? If working with a family and/or youth, how does a counselor/school counselor consider family/school/other perspectives of a problem the client may not consider problematic? For example, a parent, teacher, or spouse may be concerned about alcohol use, yet the client/student does not believe alcohol use is causing any current problems and is not interested in addressing this problem in counseling. If using a volunteer, be sure you obtain verbal consent from the volunteer. Include at least one scholarly reference in your response.
