Q2. State which intervention model you are discussing
ARISE (A Relational Sequence for Engagement) Intervention Model.
Q3. What are the key features of the intervention model and what, and how the model is designed to address those problems?
Key features of the ARISE intervention model is that it offers a comprehensive care to clients with mental depression. It has various keys features that suits the psychological condition that Laura is suffering from. The ARISE intervention model offers timely intervention to a person with mental depression way before hitting the bottom. ARISE intervention model is effective as sooner the intervention, the higher the success outcomes overcoming the long-term psychological damage. Martinez, Arnaout & Martino (2017) highlighting the five fundamentals principles of motivational interviewing, reflective listening (expressed through empathy), and developing discrepancy between goals and their current behaviors stands out to bring the patient into the line of behavior change treatment. The ARIS intervention model involves an entire family with the void of any secrets or surprises. It introduces the client with the family and ensures a full recovery and healing. Every family member and the client is aware of all the plans and set meetings that are supposed to attend. Inviting person of concern to taking part in the intervention gives them a stronger sense of ownership and control over their life and health. Involving the family members who are close to the person of concern is that it teaches them the best ways of supporting their loved ones achieving the long-term goal soberness. ARISE intervention model is founded on principles of respect, care, and love. Studies show that it has an 83% success rate as it has comprehensive care and additional during and post-treatment supports of the person of concern and their families.
The theory behind the ARISE intervention model is that majority of the people have developed mental health problems unknowingly to them over a long period or their entire lives. Failure to recognize the mental challenge in fear that their career professions will be affected is what is delaying the majority of people hence delaying the treatment. Laura has been having psychological problems over her entire life as evidence in the case study.
The ARISE intervention model is designed to address Laura’s problem comprehensively that she has faced since childhood. The treatment is completed quickly and professionally without significantly affecting the person relationship with individuals involved in the treatment process. The three stages in the model sequentially help plan for the support group and sharing of the concern.
The first stage, partner or a close family member, contacts the psychological professional or the selected interview specialist who will assist their loved one. A face-to-face meeting planning for the interview is arranged, and a support group composing family members is set encouraging the person of interest to attend. In the second stage, the counselor has some detail interviewed earlier. It is done only if the subject has not started treatment. It is at this stage when the plans for the intervention and if there are new people in need of recruitment to the intervention. During the meeting, actual intervention is planned, and the person of interest is given outline and has agreed with everything. The final stage is where the family members present their concern to the person of interest. The consequences are decided upon in case of failing to attend the treatment. The overall goal is to get the individual into treatment as quickly as possible, taking between 1-3 weeks.
Laura has already entered the treatment stage. The information passing is that she has given the underlying mental challenging history that is believed to have been the route cause of her mental depression. According to the Motivation Interviewing spirit, the changing talk (Evocation stage) is that Laura has acknowledged that she has a problem and is making an effort to change. The commitment to make an arrangement showing up for the interview and revealing family, mental and personal background and relation life is that she has a desire to change (Action stage).
Q4. Applying the ARISE intervention model
Taking the position of a trained psychological professional, I will exploit the OARS treatment phase to apply the ARISE intervention model. O= Open-ended questions allow the client to participate fully through the conversation; relevant information is learned. A= Affirmations instill confidence that client the problems is possible to change. R= Reflections is giving a listening ear and creating understanding of the client’s perspective. S= Summary of the issues discussed during the counseling session. With the fact that the ARISE Intervention model allows involving close relatives, I will invite her common-law partner, close family members, and relatives to help her overcome mental depression and anxiety behaviors. They will help take care of her during and after treatment to prevent relapse.
Q5. Give a brief statement about which aspects of the model would be most helpful
ARISE intervention model aspect that makes it more advanced in motivational interviewing is the involvement of the family members. This is much helpful s the family has details information about your background and development history. In the treatment of mental depression that Laura is undergoing, her common-law partner, the family, relatives are in a better position to take care of her during and after treatment. Family involvement will help her also maintain the 5th stage of change. In case of slipping, she will have learned from experience, and as well desire to start again will have been instilled and easy to maintain the last stage of change.
