Treatment Plan Assignment Instructions

Overview

The Treatment Plan Assignment gives you an opportunity to work with your chosen diagnoses and craft appropriate clinical goals and interventions in the form of a treatment plan.

Instructions

You will develop a treatment plan covering the first four weeks of group sessions, using the Paleg & Jongsma text as a reference. Begin with a brief description of 1–2 paragraphs of a fictitious group (include population, demographics, particular issues, etc.). In addition to the primary presenting issue (PTSD, Sexual Trauma, Intimate Partner Violence, etc.), select one or more secondary issues (Bulimia, Shyness, Chronic Pain, Panic Attacks, Stress, etc.).

Next, select 3 short-term objectives for each meeting (week), and then select 2 or more therapeutic interventions to address each of these short-term objectives.

Sample treatment plans are in the text on pages 1–11 (please utilize this format), and yours should be detailed and at least4 double-spaced pages. Current APA style must be used.

Topics are not limited to but can include: ADHD, Borderline Personality Disorder, Bulimia, Chemical Dependence, Depression, Domestic Violence offender or survivor, Grief/Loss, Incest Offender or Survivor, Parenting Issues, PTSD, Rape Survivors, Separation/Divorce, Single Parents, or Stepparenting.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
