Assessing the Crisis
BSHS/445 Version 4
Affective
Client is a 20-year-old single Caucasian female. She reported feeling upset for the last two months since
her boyfriend broke up with her. Client appeared to be depressed, as evidenced by tearfulness during
the session. Client denied any suicidal or homicidal ideation (SI/HI) and reported no past history of
danger to self or others (DTS/DTO).
Behavioral
Client was asked if there have been times in the past that she felt this way. She stated the last time she
felt like this was a year ago when she failed her math final. This writer explored strategies with the client
that helped the last time she felt this way. The client reported that she has been able to get a lot of
assistance from talking with her friends and running. She stated her friends are very supportive and that
running helps her feel better about herself. Client agreed that if she continued feeling this way over the
next 24 hours, she would call her best friend and go for a run.
Cognitive
Client appeared to be clear and logical in her thinking. Client denied any auditory or visual hallucinations
(AH/VH) or delusions. She was future-oriented and has a plan in place if she does not start feeling
better.
*A progress note is a note used to document interaction with a client. A good example of a common
process note is a SOAP note. Many agencies use the SOAP note to document contact with clients. SOAP
notes refer to the following type of assessment: subjective, objective, assessment, and plan.
