This paper will focus on constructing a strategy to engage and build rapport with a particular client on the provided vignette. The task is to navigate through obstacles that may arise that are unique to his characteristics including lack of information and limited research. To overcome these barriers of building rapport, the clinician must identify the client’s strengths and struggles as well as research scholarly literature on the client’s characteristics that are significantly different than the clinician’s to engage with and benefit the client’s session.…

On searching the literature, many models of consultation were found. However, one that follows a logical approach, which is applicable to most clinical settings is the Calgary-Cambridge guide developed by Silverman, Kurtz and Draper (2004). As observed by Munson (2007) this model provides an easy-to-use structure that complements the traditional nursing holistic assessment. I choose this guide as it encourages a patient-centred, active partnership between the nurse practitioners and the patient, based on therapeutic communication, whilst it advocates the value of reflective practice to aid personal and professional development (Gibbs,…
The ways in which the clinician helped establish the relationship with the client were through unconditional positive regard, personal warmth, and genuineness. Through the session the helper listened to the client without any interruptions. The clinician also made sure to be accepting and non-judgmental of anything that her client discussed.…

All clinical interviewing is embedded in a system of values and beliefs that shape the clinical work we do (Dillion, 2003).When adapting to the world we all become familiar with what we believe in and value as a person. These keynotes, determine who we are as an individual. When considering our beliefs and values, we should understand that we as professionals do not want to offend our clients.…
21 (Drummond & Jones, 2010). For me to go against this statement would be unwise, especially as a person centered counselor. As such I believe knowing the client is critical to assisting in their journey back to wellness (Corey, 2013). The use of all types of interviewing is needed to see the entire picture; unstructured, semi-structured as well as structured interviews. These all play a role in developing the initial picture you can paint of your client.…
As a professional working in the field of Human Services, having specific helping skills are vital to the effectiveness of the services as well as the goals of the client. There are many elements that support both verbal and non-verbal communication. Contrary to the supportive elements that determine success, there are also a wide range of barriers that both the helper and the client may face. It is important for the helper to attend to several duties before meeting with a client such as completing appropriate forms or paperwork in order to gain as much information about the client as possible. The helper must also set up a comfortable environment for the client as the helping process can be intimidating which may hinder success. In addition to the duties of the helper prior to the initial meeting with a client, the helper must keep in mind effective questions that will guide them through the helping process.…
Structured interview is a specific set of questions that can be asked to any person to help diagnose an abnormal psychological disorder. Before I began my structured interview I read through the set of questions to get the flow of the interview. I also tried to imagine what a person might hold back about and made some side notes on how I would try to encourage the patient to give more information. I have not given many formal interviews such as the structured interview. If I were to become a clinician I would probably prefer the unstructured format. However I did learn several things about clinical interviews and there were things that I did and did not like. In the following paragraphs I will describe my trial experience.…
Listening is also an essential component. As a health care provider, listening gives the opportunity to know their needs and concerns. Acknowledging what the patient is really saying, maintaining eye contact, and recognizing and using body language are some of the things that I need to consider. If these are all effectively met, I think that this would help patients in becoming more involved with their medications/treatments, thus producing a positive patient outcomes. The probing or the way I ask question to patients also plays a vital role. It is important that I ask questions in a sincere way to obtain needed information or to just simply clarify something. Asking open-ended questions will help elicit relevant answers from the patient and not just “yes/no” answers. An example would be when she asked for allergies and asked for the specific kind of reaction that she had. Lastly, feedback is a must. Before ending the interview, asking for a feedback will allow me to check if the patient really understands what was taught. . An example of this was when she asked the patient how she would be taking the medication. This will help to reinforce adherence and make the patient to be involved in the treatment, reducing or eliminating chances of non-compliance.…
