Treatment methods
Strength-Based
During training, all treatment modalities were covered. In practice, clients are empowered by identifying what’s already working for them and building on that. This approach helps clients strengthen resilience and increase self-efficacy, allowing them to cope with challenges using their own talents, skills, and abilities.
Supportive
All treatment modalities were covered during training, and this method has been used by the practice, and found effective. In practice, the focus on emotional support, comfort and empowerment to clients was effective. The use of a nonjudgemental client-centered and empathetic approach leads to a safe environment
