Rasmussen College Psychology ASI Demonstration Discussion

POST ONE: For this discussion, watch the video of the ASI demonstration and respond to the following questions:

1. What basic counseling skills did you observe during the assessment?
2. Based on the answers the client provides, which stage of change do you feel is most appropriate for her?
3. Is the client showing any signs of co-occurring disorders, or will you need more observation and information?
4. What additional questions might you ask about substance use? Addiction Severity Index, Lisa part1 – YouTube

1. POST TWO: Data from the assessment will provide an opportunity to create a problem list that will help develop measurable goals for a reduction in the problem(s). After completing the readings for this unit, utilize the media piece you watched for u04d1 and discuss the two most important problem areas in the client’s life. Discuss how the data from the assessment helped identify these problems. Provide specific detail on the problems in the client’s life and indicate how these problems might be addressed in treatment.
