Intervention Development Assignment Information & Instructions
Before starting, please make sure to read the Guide to Module 3. You may find the Stages of Change Intervention Mapping Guide (p. 9) particularly helpful.
For this assignment, you are creating a treatment protocol for a 2-week long intervention based off the information from your previous assignments. This intervention should contain two (2) sessions.
You may base your intervention off an already existing intervention . However, please do not use an existing intervention in its entirety and make sure to describe the intervention in your own words . make sure to provide a reference for any intervention techniques you adopt that are based on published interventions.
Choose an intervention designed to meet the change area selected and specific treatment goals from the Case Conceptualization Assignment. Please include the rationale(reasons) for why you are including the information or activity. Everything must tie back to your problem statement, goal, and objective(s). Document the thought process that went into selecting the intervention. Provide a reference list for all resources used in the creation of your intervention.
Here is a list of ideas; note that this list is far from exhaustive:
Mindfulness meditation
Mindfulness stress reduction
Sandtray (sandplay) therapy
Brief Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Music-based intervention
Arts-based intervention
Mindful self-compassion
Note about timing/structure: As noted above, the intervention should have two sessions. As you explain the intervention, please make sure to explain the timing and structure of implementation.
