Assignment: Diagnosing an Addictive Disorder

In Weeks 5 and 6, the Learning Resources reviewed screening, assessment, and diagnosis concepts for clients with addiction concerns and co-occurring disorders. The screening and assessment process provides the groundwork for the client’s counseling experience by informing diagnosis and subsequent treatment plans. 

In this Assignment, you will analyze the assessment needs of a client and how this informs diagnosis.

Complete a 3- to 4-page paper in which you do the following:

  • Read the case studies provided in this week's Learning Resources and select the one most similar to the client population you are most likely to work with.
  • Create four questions that you can ask the client as part of a clinical interview/assessment, and explain why these questions are important.
  • Select two assessment instruments that you might use during the assessment of this client, and explain why you selected them and how each instrument informs diagnosis.
  • Identify the preliminary diagnoses you are considering for this client and why.
  • Identify what information you need to seek out to complete the diagnostic process. Include background, contextual information, and any co-occurring disorders that may be present.

Justify your response with specific references to this week’s Learning Resources and the current literature.

 

 

The client population I am working with is Substance abuse
