Discussion Post
For your initial post to this discussion, develop a case note about a client session you recently completed. Use the Signs and Symptoms, Topics of Discussion, Interventions, Progress and Plan, and Special Issues (STIPS) format as presented in the Prieto and Scheel's 2002 article, "Using Case Documentation to Strengthen Counselor Trainees' Case Conceptualization Skills." Maintain confidentiality by altering all names or specific identifying information.
Before posting, review your STIPS case note for errors. Note any clinical documentation errors that detract from the validity of the information. Describe what errors you discovered in your clinical writing and how you might begin to improve those areas. In addition, identify areas where your documentation meets professional standards for clarity, accuracy, and writing.
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
