Once the first impressions are formed and formatted in the middle stage of the book digest treatment, and the treatment plan is selected, the task of the social worker is to shift the treatment process in advance to determine a certain goal and object. The intermediate stage of treatment is the process of substantive treatment. It is often referred to as the "work-through" phase. Before the advent of the short-term treatment model (managed care in recent years), social workers seemed to have a lot of time to engage in this stage of the treatment process. It often takes years for the client to obtain observation and better understanding during treatment. Some people have changed their personal characteristics. But regardless of long-term or short-term treatment, in the middle stage of treatment, social workers and clients must seek for some predictable events.
There are many reasons to focus treatment at the intermediate stage. It is important to understand that the client's fear of the unknown is normal. Change often threatens the stability of the client's environment, even when stability is uncomfortable. A couple may be quarrelling and their marriage life is unhappy, but if the change would signal the end of the relationship, they may look for a new lifestyle. There are many forms of process resistance and obstacles mentioned in cognitive behavioral models. Sometimes missing a meeting may indicate that the client is struggling with the treatment process. Being late or early may be a sign of anxiety, and discussing trivial matters rather than important events in the client's life may indicate that the client is afraid of making changes. Social workers need to take the real cause of obstacles to treatment relationships seriously. Many clients lead a chaotic life. A single mother may have to take her child to a clinical date and wait in line for a few hours before she misses the treatment time. Clients generally do not want to be asked to attend a child's school or work meeting. When the client's behavior is seen as a fear or anxiety of change, the worker must pay attention to the client's life pressure.
When there is an obstacle to progress in the middle stage of treatment, such as missing a meeting, the worker may directly ask the question: "I didn't see you last week. What happened?" If the client answered vaguely or stated that she did not want to come, Then the social worker must ask euphemistically: Did something uncomfortable occur in the previous talks? What does she think of this treatment? What does she think of working with you? The last question is to take you into the migration It is important to communicate with each other in the middle stage of treatment. Check if you have done or said something that hurts or hurts the client. Is working too fast to make your explanations confrontational and self-contained? If you can't reach a conclusion, ask the client or your supervisor. Social workers are not perfect, and they make mistakes. Does the empathy reaction happen no matter what I do? Maybe you can remind the client of someone who is important to her and has judgment. You can ask the client with the materials: "Did I say or do something that reminds you of someone you used to-your family or a friend? Who is that person?" And real feelings are important. Studying empathy will help clients make significant progress in their current relationships. This is most commonly seen in couple therapy, where both believe that their strong response to couple behavior is based on past annoyances or pains to parents. Inquiring into the substance-the true relationship-
-Will help workers adjust their thinking to suit the client's needs. Clients may be angry at workers for a variety of reasons. Maybe she's too negligent, not empathetic, or too preoccupied. Things that seem small during the client's talks, such as answering a phone call, can cause empathy to decline and produce a strong response. You can't see the response right away, but the next meeting will give you hints. Skilled workers will pay close attention to the verbal and non-verbal behavior of the subject in the middle stage. It is entirely appropriate to mention things such as the client seems less talkative and impatient, or other things that seem to be opposing. Although direct confrontation may upset the client and irritate her, we still need to mention these things. Of course, if the client participates in the rehabilitation plan, the exception is when confrontation becomes a principle. A polite explanation is better. It is difficult for the client to discuss some things or answer your words. You must not explain recklessly, such as "You are angry with me about your past." Recklessness can cause harm, especially if they are brought into treatment prematurely.
This way they may often make mistakes. It is better to let the client take the idea. It is extremely important to talk about the sense of security in the therapeutic relationship experienced by the client at this stage. This will overcome the anxiety associated with change and allow social workers to take the necessary steps to achieve the goals of treatment.
