IN SUMMARY

To summarize the assessment set, we are clearly focused on the individual’s crisis.  We have it clearly defined.  We have assessed the individual and his total situation sufficiently to develop a “picture” of what is happening.  We have developed a causal explanation of the crisis that includes the precipitating event, and we have explored the cumulative and the unseen effects.  Basically, we are focused on the crisis and have a good idea about what is going on, what happened, and what might happen.  In addition, we have been sufficiently involved with the individual to enable him to develop a similar understanding of what is happening, what happened, and what is likely to happen.  Now we are ready to develop our intervention hypothesis—our possible solution.
