2 Focus on Strengthening Therapeutic Relationship (2)The relationship with the client was strengthened using empirically supported factors.The relationship with client was strengthened through the implementation of a collaborative approach, agreement on goals, demonstration of empathy, verbalization of positive regard, and collection of client feedback.The client reacted positively to the relationship-strengthening measures taken.The client verbalized feeling supported and understood during therapy sessions.Despite attempts to strengthen the therapeutic relationship, the client reports feeling distant and misunderstood.The client has indicated that sessions are not helpful and will be terminating therapy.
3 Assess Nature of Anxiety Symptoms (3)The client was asked about the frequency, intensity, duration, and history of his/her/their anxiety symptoms, fear, and avoidance.The Anxiety and Related Disorders Interview Schedule for DSM-5 (DiNardo, Brown, and Barlow) was used to assess the client's anxiety symptoms.The assessment of the client's anxiety symptoms indicated that his/her/their symptoms are extreme and severely interfere with his/her/their life.The assessment of the client's anxiety symptoms indicates that these symptoms are moderate and occasionally interfere with his/her/their daily functioning.The results of the assessment of the client's anxiety symptoms indicate that these symptoms are mild and rarely interfere with his/her/their daily functioning.The results of the assessment of the client's anxiety symptoms were reviewed with the client.
4 Administer Client-Report Measure (4)A client-report measure was used to further assess the depth and breadth of the client's anxiety responses.The Penn State Worry Questionnaire (Meyer, Miller, Metzger, and Borkevec) was used to assess the depth and breadth of the client's anxiety responses.OQ-45.2 (Lambert and Burlingame) was used to assess the depth and breadth of the client's anxiety responses at the outset of treatment.The Symptom Checklist-90-R (Derogatis) was used to assess the client's level of anxiety.The client-report measure indicated that the client's anxiety is extreme and severely interferes with his/her/their life.The client-report measure indicated that the client's anxiety is moderate and occasionally interferes with his/her/their daily life.The client-report measure indicated that the client's anxiety is mild and rarely interferes with his/her/their daily life.
5 Refer for Assessment Regarding Etiology (5)The client was referred for an assessment to rule out nonpsychiatric medical etiologies for his/her/their anxiety.The client was referred for an assessment to rule out substance-induced etiologies for his/her/their level of anxiety.The client has complied with the referral and the results of this evaluation were reviewed.The client has not complied with the referral for a medical evaluation and was redirected to do so.

7 Assess for Correlated Disorders (7)The client was assessed for evidence of research-based correlated disorders.The client was assessed in regard to his/her/their level of vulnerability to suicide.The client was identified as having a comorbid disorder, and treatment was adjusted to account for these concerns.The client has been assessed for any correlated disorders, but none were found.
8 Assess for Culturally Based Confounding Issues (8)The client was assessed for age-related issues that could help to better understand his/her/their clinical presentation.The client was assessed for gender-related issues that could help to better understand his/her/their clinical presentation.The client was assessed for cultural syndromes, cultural idioms of distress, or culturally based perceived causes that could help to better understand his/her/their clinical presentation.Alternative factors have been identified as contributing to the client's currently defined “problem behavior,” and these were taken into account in regard to his/her/their treatment.Culturally based factors that could help to account for the client's currently defined “problem behavior” were investigated, but no significant factors were identified.
9 Assess Severity of Impairment (9)The severity of the client's impairment was assessed to determine the appropriate level of care.The client was assessed in regard to his/her/their impairment in social, relational, vocational, and occupational endeavors.It was reflected to the client that his/her/their impairment appears to create mild to moderate effects on the client's functioning.It was reflected to the client that his/her/their impairment appears to create severe to very severe effects on the client's functioning.The client was continuously assessed for the severity of impairment, as well as the efficacy and appropriateness of treatment.
10 Refer for Medication Evaluation (10)The client was referred to a prescribing clinician to evaluate him/her for psychotropic medication to reduce symptoms of anxiety.The client has completed an evaluation by the prescribing clinician and has begun taking antianxiety medications.The client has resisted the referral to a prescribing clinician and does not want to take any medication to reduce anxiety levels; his/her/their concerns were processed.

24 Construct Anxiety Stimuli Hierarchy (24)The client was assisted in constructing a hierarchy of anxiety-producing situations associated with two or three spheres of worry.It was difficult for the client to develop a hierarchy of stimulus situations, as the causes of his/her/their anxiety remain quite vague; he/she/they were assisted in completing the hierarchy.The client was successful at creating a focused hierarchy of specific stimulus situations that provoke anxiety in a gradually increasing manner; this hierarchy was reviewed.
25 Select Initial Exposures (25)Initial exposures were selected from the hierarchy of anxiety-producing situations, with a bias toward likelihood of being successful.A plan was developed with the client for managing the symptoms that may occur during the initial exposure.The client was assisted in rehearsing the plan for managing the exposure-related symptoms within his/her/their imagination.Positive feedback was provided for the client's helpful use of symptom management techniques.The client was redirected for ways to improve his/her/their symptom management techniques.
