For example, Tammy does not trust on men because in the past she has been cheated and has a trust issue. She wants to work on her goal to trust on men but she noticed that there will be a lack of time due to her ability with school and work. Another barrier that a client might interfere is lack of motivation. For instance, Tammy lost the motivation to date men because she noticed all the men are liars and they are not real. She has lost her motivation and is not interesting on working on the goal. A client that is suffering from obesity might have a barrier with poor body image.

Constructing a treatment plan for a client involves various components. Prior to starting a treatment plan, the human service worker should carry out a client assessment.

I have decided to use just three main components that are, in my view integral for the success of, the 8-to-10 session care plan. In my opinion First contact, trust building, and life enhancing goals, should be considered as one component. To me this is essential because, it is the foundation to start an effective treatment plan. No one will truly trust or confide in you as a counselor, if you don’t make a good impression. This is important to me since how can you as a counselor expect someone to really, and I mean really open up to you aren’t warm and inviting, trustworthy, and willing to be goal oriented in their treatment plan. Secondly, the BECHRISTLIKE example set forth in out text book is an imperative step. Think of it this way you are meeting a stranger whom you may know nothing about.

Our Pathology textbook puts an actual time frame with it stating that according to the World Health Organization, terminally ill patients with cancer usually are not expected to live for longer than 90 days. (Goodman, Fuller, & O 'Shea, 2012, p. 189) Individuals who are actively suffering from a terminal illness can also acquire additional issues or illnesses as a result of the initial illness. It is not uncommon for patients who have or had breast cancer also to suffer from lymphedema or patients with
The author states that the best way to set up an intervention plan for our clients is “to start with the client. Ask the client about what it is that he or she wants to work on” (Ward & Mama, 2006, 131). The author suggests that we may see the obvious things that the client wont and that we should see if it would be an interest for them to work on it as well. (Ward & Mama, 2006, 131) But that we should wait until the end of our meeting after the client has told us what they want to work on.
