It can help determine whether the client feels comfortable discussing and disclosing information with the therapist. You can also assess whether or not you can work with the client and especially if they feel they can work with the therapist and also whether hypnotherapy is suitable for the client. An ethical therapist needs to take make sure there is no sexual attraction, if this is the case the therapy should not continue. Obviously in the initial consultation you can determine the nature of the clients problem, this then depends on how many sessions the client will need, for example a one off quit smoking session may differ to another problem which may need 3-6 sessions or more. Therapists ‘work solely with neuroses and not psychoses’ (chrysalis mod2 p22) ethical therapists should cover this when assessing a client in an initial consultation and will discuss with the client what medical and mental health issues
Cognitive therapy would be beneficial in Robert's case. As a Therapist i would help him focus on other aspect that can get him into medical school such as curricular activities and letters of recommendation. Robert fears of not getting into medical can ge worst and due to the fact he is focusing on bad aspect of the situation. He will lose focus of other great things he has accomplised. I will help him by first using reverse modification and minimization, focusing positively on the other aspects of getting into medical while trying to help realize that just getting a D is minimal to other criterias.

Autonomy as free action is when a patient’s choice is both voluntary and intentional. In this sense, the patient must be told what you plan to do to him and he must freely agree to it (without force and excessive influence). It should be the person's conscious decision and not from persuasion through deception or manipulation to choose differently. This concept is illustrated in the Dax case but his request is not granted. Don was told of the treatment and was aware of the things the doctors were going to do in order to keep him alive.

In the book both sisters had to deal with their spouse cheating on them but they both just wanted revenge on their husband and boyfriend at first but that wasn’t the right way to go about it. One of my favorite lines in the book is in the chapter where the spiritual counselors tell Vanessa and Thomas that just because god says its okay to divorce and adulterer doesn’t mean you should. I think that in this day and age, we are so quick to throw in the towel and sometimes god really wants us to look at the “for better or for worse” part. I think that if your husband or wife was to make a mistake we shouldn’t be so quick to get a divorce and try to work things out. This book taught me that divorce isn’t the way to solve your problems all though time.
A job is something that if you find one your whole life you’re a lucky person. The fact that his parents kind of got him the job shows how hard it might have been. Another reason could be that maybe he thought it was cool. I could never do this is because anywhere you go there will be a boss that makes you upset. Who’s to say if he were to get another job that his next boss would confront a girl he takes liking to and he quits that job too.
The employees may feel a certain way about the layoff of the co-workers and also it may effect how they work. Also another thing is the loss of valuable and knowledgeable employees may affect others too. The new hire people will have no one to ask if they do not understand or know how to perform a task asked of them. This can cause serious problems for productivity and for the patients at the clinic. The last disadvantage I think will be a problem to the Dodge Clinic is employees seeking employment elsewhere because they do not feel there job is secure.
