I understand that interventions with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities are critical and ongoing social work components. I will continuously study and implement clinical evidence-based interventions that may help my clients and their diverse situations. Proficiency in evidence-based interventions applies to the micro, mezzo, and macro levels of social work. I plan to include effective models in my expertise for each level and integrate them accordingly to meet established goals. I will also seek interprofessional consultation as needed when deciding the most appropriate interventions.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 8A – Implement clinical evidence-based interventions with individuals, families, and groups.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Course Evidence:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>A final assignment for my Advanced Clinical Practice: Individual and Family Interventions was a full-length Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Session<\/strong> <\/a>with an individual pseudo client. I demonstrated skills from the generalist practice model, including engagement, assessment, planning, and intervention. During the session, I was able to educate the pseudo client on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected, as well as how to identify and challenge automatic thoughts. We also collaborated to set SMART goals for the client to overcome her current struggles of anxiety and stress. I focused on the person-in-environment approach while promoting self-determination and empowerment.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
