Case study treatment plan sample

I’m working on a Psychology exercise and need support.

Design a treatment plan utilizing the case study of Leigh (page 171) following the format displayed in Figure 6.2 on page 172 of the textbook. Be sure to address the following in your treatment plan:

Problem areas identified
DSM Diagnosis with specifiers
Goals & Objectives to address each problem area identified
Describe Treatment Interventions
Client’s strengths and weaknesses (liabilities)
Theoretical model for treatment strategies
Include at least four scholarly sources in your treatment plan to include the course readings.

While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center

Case Discussion Case 3 (Leigh). To illustrate the concept of treatment settings, let us extend Case 3 and imagine Leigh, a 16-year-old marijuana and alcohol user who has run into trouble with her substance use. Her problems intensified one evening when she and her friends were brought into cus-tody for questioning by police. Leigh was par-tying with some new friends in a wooded area close to the high school she attends. Police, responding to a complaint initiated by neigh-bors in the area, confronted the adolescents and found alcohol and marijuana. Officials were concerned about the underage drink-ing, illegal use of marijuana, and in particular Leigh’s emotional state, which was hostile, disoriented, and apparently intoxicated. Police contacted Leigh’s mother and dis-cussed the possibility of charging Leigh with possession of marijuana and disorderly con-duct. After several unsuccessful attempts by police to persuade Leigh to seek immediate medical care, she was evaluated to be at risk to herself and was involuntarily admitted to medical detoxification. She spent several days in detoxification and getting “clear headed,” and then she voluntarily agreed to attend a re-habilitation program. When she had 28 days of successful treatment, her counselors rec-ommended an intensive outpatient program to continue her recovery. This scenario illustrates that treatment settings are not stagnant environments but integrative opportunities to move clients to-ward recovery and health. The reverse is also possible. Leigh might have a relapse (or slip) and need a temporary, more restrictive set-ting to regain her hard-won progress. Moving up and down this continuum of care provides a multitude of treatment ser-vices designed to fit the client’s unique needs. The effectiveness of treatment settings comes from their flexibility, adaptability, and respon-siveness to the client’s current recovery needs. Page 171. Let us return to the case of our 17-year-old, polysubstance-abusing client Leigh. After her arrest and detoxification, she was admitted to a 30-day chemical dependency rehabilitation program. Her biopsychosocial assessment re-vealed a history of using alcohol and marijuana at parties and sometimes during school hours. She has had some moderate school-related problems (e.g., lateness) and a shoplifting charge.
