Effective Treatment Planning For Counselors June 16, 2012

Because we live in a world of fiscal accountability, the healthcare industry has had to evolve from the motto of “do no harm” to “prove what good was done.” Both private and public sector behavioral healthcare have been profoundly impacted by this shift over the last two decades. Consequently, payer sources (such as Medicaid or an insurance company) generally expect to see justification for services in the form of documentation. These expectations include documentation that reflects therapeutic needs and specific interventions designed to bring relief so that one’s optimal functioning is regained.

Counseling Theories – Person – Centered Approach July 14, 2012
The basic premise is that we are all "becoming;" we are all moving towards self-actualization. Rogers believed that each of us has the innate ability to reach our full potential. As infants we are born with it, but because of early experiences, we may lose our connection to it. The self concept we develop in response to our early experiences may tend to alienate us from our true self. In this theory there is no such thing as mental illness. It is just a matter of being disconnected from our self-potential. This therapy is often considered the most optimistic approach to human potential.
