In my previous role, I encountered a client who was resistant to therapy due to past negative experiences. I addressed this by actively listening to their concerns, validating their feelings, and gradually introducing therapeutic techniques that aligned with their comfort level. This approach helped build trust and facilitated their engagement in therapy sessions.

I prioritize tasks based on the urgency and severity of each client's needs. Using a structured approach, I categorize tasks into immediate, short-term, and long-term goals. This ensures that critical issues are addressed promptly while maintaining progress on ongoing objectives.

I adhere strictly to HIPAA regulations and maintain comprehensive documentation practices. I ensure that all client interactions are conducted in private settings and that sensitive information is stored securely. Regular training and updates on ethical standards further reinforce my commitment to confidentiality.

When a client is not making progress, I first review our treatment plan to ensure it is tailored to their specific needs. I then engage in open communication with the client to understand any barriers they might be facing. Adjusting the approach, seeking feedback, and collaborating with other professionals can often lead to breakthroughs.

I have extensive experience in crisis intervention, having completed specialized training in de-escalation techniques. I use a combination of active listening, empathy, and clear communication to stabilize the situation. Additionally, I am skilled in using physical and environmental strategies to ensure safety during crises.
