Too often personality type is applied as a label to ‘box’ clients into a particular style of interaction. However, the sequencing of preferences and developmental dimensions of type provide marvelous tools to customize treatment plans and therapy. While the counselor’s own personality type will affect their approach, building a treatment plan with the client’s preferences in mind can broaden one’s range of interventions and clarify an approach which will be most accessible for the client.
CEU OBJECTIVES:
- Assess the process of taking the instrument and verifying type with clients.
- Clarify the role and influence of dominant, auxiliary, tertiary and inferior preferences.
- Recognize the developmental nature of a client’s personality development.
- Learn to assess type development and flexibility in clients.
- Be able to explain to clients the value of developing less preferred functions in positive interactions.
- Be able to describe the negative impact of stress on flexibility and adaptability in applying the functions.
- Develop strategies for integrating type into treatment planning and therapy.
