PART III

Intervention Planning

The nature of the intervention plan should coincide with the needs of the student. Additionally, treatment goals should be SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely). Using your theoretical foundation of Person-Centered Theory coupled with your preferred theoretical orientation described in Part II, respond to the following elements:

· Short-term Academic SMART goal for treatment

· Short-term Person/Social SMART goal for treatment

· Short-term Systemic/Career SMART goal for treatment

· Interventions, approaches, and techniques to work towards these goals

· Long-term Academic SMART goal for treatment

· Long-term Person/Social SMART goal for treatment

· Long-term Systemic/Career SMART goal for treatment

· Interventions, approaches, and techniques to work towards these goals

· How will you involve school personnel in supporting the student?

Ethical and Legal Considerations

Nearly all students and every situation present the possibility for ethical concerns and dilemmas. It is important to be proactive and intentional in our consideration of what those might be. Ethical challenges can arise in a number of ways, including transference/countertransference, court-ordered counseling, informed consent, boundary violations, poor self-care, limits of confidentiality, and mandated reporting, to name a few. Using the ACA Code of Ethics, reflect on your work with the student and respond to the following:

· Describe potential ethical dilemmas present or potentially present

· Identify your own barriers or challenges that may complicate the ethical dilemma

· Explain the steps you should take to be intentional and proactive in your ethical approach

Social Change Implications

The end of your work with a student should not be the end of your work. Each student impacts us as we impact them. Reflect on your student and their circumstances. Consider their efforts in relation to their successes and failures. Keeping in mind all of the information you have considered for this case and all the insight you have gained, respond to the following elements:

· Address the systems and barriers the student experiences that impacted the current situation and outcomes

· If changed or removed, identify what systems and barriers could impact positively upon this individual in the future

· Discuss how your work with this student has informed your understanding of a larger social challenge or barrier

· Identify steps you could take to effect positive social change in relation to this social challenge or barrier
