In terms of notifying the new clients about regarding possible legal situations, I would make sure I start by explicitly informing them about my duty to report certain concerns, such as situations in which I suspect there is child abuse or neglect, or if the client poses harm too themselves or to others (Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association, 2021). Overall, I would make sure my client understands the limits to confidentiality within the counselling relationship and under what circumstances I would be obligated to break confidentiality. I will also make sure I educate myself about the client’s background, customs, and beliefs before init Hi Megan and Stefanie, I enjoyed your discussion! To answer your question Megan, ending the session on a positive note can be challenging especially if the assessment results are not ideal or what the client wanted to hear. However, to introduce more positivity, I think it would be beneficial to highlight the client's strengths and positive aspects of their situation. This would help the client focus on what is going well for them and what is working instead of emphasizing the challenging aspects (Stiles, 1980). Another way to end the session on a positive note is to make the client feel hopeful about their future/situation. This could be done by providing a clear and actionable plan for moving forward. I would discuss specific steps or interventions that could be used to address the challenges identified in the assessment. This would make the client feel hopeful about their growth. It would also help to encourage the client to be compassionate towards themselves, since it could be a powerful tool when dealing with difficult emotions or setbacks. Stefanie, that is a great question. I would start by thoroughly understanding the assessment results. By doing so, I would be able to identify key strengths and weaknesses, as well as any potential challenges that may be particularly distressing for the client (Hays, 2017). I would also pay close attention to the client's emotional state during the session so that I can figure out how to approach the situation in the best way possible. References Stiles, W. (1980).
