Question 3

A counselor when interviewing a client detected symptoms of depression.Describe the process of determining the level of depression and possible dysfunctional thinking.Indicate why these procedures are important.

Accepted Answer

Counselors want to know the level of depression and the presence of dysfunctional thinking to determine if career counseling is to be delayed until the depression is moderated.This is a call counselors are often required to make.What stands out here is what is best for the client.Some clients can begin career counseling at the same time a depressive reaction is being addressed.The depressive reaction may not interfere with decision-making.Clients with severe levels of depression are carefully screened after intervention strategies have addressed their problems.One strategy is to use standardized inventories to determine levels of depression, such as the Beck Depression Inventory.A number of standardized instruments can be used to determine dysfunctional thinking as related to decision-making, such as the Career Thoughts Inventory.Counselors use the data from standardized instruments and what they have learned from the intake interview to determine appropriate procedures for each client.​
