Abstract
This chapter describes the process of assessment of clients according to the Pathways Model. Emphasis is placed on active participation of the client in identifying immediate concerns, major problems, and setting goals for treatment. Quotations from typical clients are utilized to highlight the importance of the therapeutic relationship. Examples of standardized testing are provided. Multilevel treatment recommendations using the Pathways Model derive from the self-report and professional evaluation.
