Discussion post response to: I would differentiate between client empowerment, strength and resiliency by assessing the client "empowerment is the process of increasing personal, interpersonal or political power so that individuals can take action to improve their life situations" "Strength capacities, resources, and assets" that can be assessed to increase empowerment... Resiliency is the ability of any system to withstand and receiver from adversity" (Kirst-Ashman, 2018). As a social worker, I provide therapy for a wide range of people experiencing homelessness. Recently, I met with this child who is in therapy as he has experienced much trauma in his young life. I assess him and his strengths and goals. I see so much resilience and strength from him. He lives in a nomadic shelter and goes to school every day. He has shown so much resilience. As a social worker, we come together and create goals and strengths that reflect a client centered approach to help the client. Then we develop a plan to enhance and serve client needs, and provide interventions that enhance emotional expression through play therapy based interventions. Lastly, encouraging coping strategies like journal writing and listening to music. Building trust and safety is the most important component in sessions. These interactions help clients feel empowered and strengthened through engagement and emotional expression modalities. Kirst-Ashman, K. K., & Hull, G. H. (2018).
