Read the case below and answer the questions that will follow

Danny is a Nigerian — exchange student. He seems shy and self concious at first. In the initial
admission interview with his parents, the counselor learned that Danny is athletic and above
average in his academics. After a month of school, his homeroom teacher reported that Danny is
rough with his classmate in the face and sent him to the clinic. During exams, he was also caught
cheating twice. The counselor met with his parents who gave him the permission to talk to
Danny.

1. How will you introduce yourself and establish rapport with Danny?

- Since I was told about his situation. I will first say my greetings, and state who I am. In this
phase I should be able to establish the good relationship between the both of us. I think in his
situation I will catch his attention and trust we will talk about our interests and the things where
he is good. I'll use statements like, "Hey Danny, I heard you are a athletic guy?", "What do you
love to do?" and many more. I'll tell my background about the things that he loves to do and tell
my different stories when I encountered those things. I think with that he will feel comfortable
telling me his experiences and stories.

2. How will you asses Danny's problems? what tool will you use?

I think I will first use the Standardized tool to asses his problems. After I have assesed them, I
will proceed to observe his behaviour through out the counseling process.

3. If Danny admits that he has problems and needs help, how will you help him set his goals
and make sure that he follows through?

— Assuming that I am now well aware about his story and situation. And we already have the
goals to achive. It would be more effective if the procedures in attempting to achive the set goals
will benifit him and he agreed. Because I believe that If the person wants to achive something
he/she will have the full determination to achive it. If a person doesn't want to achieve it in the
first place. Nothing will change. It all depends on the willingness of the client and with the full
motivation and support from the counselor.
4. What kind of Intervention will you use on Danny so that he will benifit from the
counseling relationship?

— I think one of the best intervention that I could give is that if he feels stressed, anxious, lonely,
he should engaged himself to the things that he loves. When he feel not okay it would be better if
he will pay attention to the activities and things that he make himself good and happy.

5. If Counseling was succesful aftrr two months, how will you terminate the counseling
relationship?

— I think, it would be nice if I will spend a time to watch him play. Watch him where he is good
at to be able for me to see if he improved and already learn to be nice with others. If not, then the
counseling will not be terminated.
