Briefly describe your client’s/student’s presenting problem or career concern, and Relevant sociocultural factors that influence the case.

This is for a career counseling course. In 5–8 pages, use the Hill and O’Brien (1999) Helping Skills Model to describe the strategies/interventions that you would use to support a client’s/student’s life work plan. The Helping Skills Model is outlined in the case study, Darren: The Case of the Unemployed Runaway.

First, develop a case study to use for this Application Assignment. Do not use “Darren” from the resources. In your case study, you should:
Briefly describe your client’s/student’s presenting problem or career concern, and
Relevant sociocultural factors that influence the case.
Next, following the Hill and O’Brien (1999) model,
describe the activities that you would engage in at Stage One of your career plan (Exploration, pp. 231–232).
What techniques would you use to develop rapport, express empathy, and encourage your client/student to “tell his or her story?”
How would you broach the role of sociocultural factors in your client’s/student’s career story?
For the second stage, Insight (p. 232), identify the areas that you would focus on to gain a deeper meaning and understanding of your client’s/student’s situation.
How would you identify his or her interests, abilities, and strengths?
What career assessments and/or computer-assisted programs might be of use?
What changes in the world-of-work might be relevant?
For the Action stage (p. 232), identify
The plans you would develop
How you would evaluate them, and
What follow up activity you would do with your client.

Please pay attention to ALL details in the assignment and in the template.
