But sometimes the keys are the assessments that they are asked to complete most focus on anxiety & depression past & present. What I have found is that clients are a lot more forth coming when completing the assessments. “The call for awareness rests in the understanding that people are often unaware of the values that underlie and guide their behaviors” (Savaya, Gardner, 2012). The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) is a 21-item, self-report rating inventory that measures characteristic attitudes and symptoms of depression (Beck, et al., 1961). This assessment gives a counselor an idea of the seriousness of their depression symptoms. After the assessment, we can determine how to best address their anxiety & depression. And determine what interventions would best fit & be beneficial for the client. When looking at the assessments determining their strengths/weaknesses is also useful in understanding in using the most therapeutic interventions.American Psychological Association. (2011).

We tend to prompt our point of view and dismissing the clients. As an intern, there may be a situation that may cannot effectively manage these behaviors, which may, as a result, have unintended - and undesired - consequences. I address these during my field education by believing in the importance of careful and thoughtful documentation. Documentation is a key to ensure that practice decisions are well-considered. It is vital to be aware of all organizational policies pertaining to documentation. Social work documentation is essential for the client, the social worker, and the organizations within which services are provided. The bottom line is that careful and diligent documentation enhances the quality of services provided to clients and, ultimately, can protect practitioners (Savaya & Gardner, 2012). Another strategy is supervision because it is an essential component in monitoring interns engaged in stressful forms of practice. The supervisor is responsible for providing direction to the supervisee, who applies social work theory, standardized knowledge, skills, competency, and applicable ethical content in the practice setting (Birkenmaier & Berg-Weger, 2018). The supervisor and the supervisee both share responsibility for carrying out their role in this collaborative process. It is the supervisor’s responsibility to ensure that the supervisee provides competent, appropriate, and ethical services to the client. The supervisory relationship is built on trust, confidentiality, support, and empathic experiences. Other qualities inherent in the supervisory relationship include constructive feedback, safety, respect, and self-care.Birkenmaier, J., & Berg-Weger, M. (2018).

At my field site, under the supervision of my field placement supervisor , I have been able to complete assessments to determine if a client is meeting the eligibility of programs that we have to offer. I have been completing assessments for intakes for new clients on my caseload. The assessment process usually takes up to an hour to complete . Which consist of me asking the client numerous questions regarding their background history as well as their present. These questions touch on the client 's personal information , family history , drug use , legal issues , education , social life , medical , hobbies , and employment. As assessment is part of the primary or itself is the primary step in the interaction with a client , group , for a project or for drafting a plan, it's role is vital and must be done in the most professional and technically perfect way ( Whittington C. , 2007 ). The assessment phase helps me understand the client and also build that initial rapport. I can learn a lot about my clients through assessments, therefore, if I don't have rapport established before completing the assessments, my client may not disclose as much important information with me.
