INTAKE
Egan (1994) → Helping model (three stages):
1. Problem clarification (INTAKE)- making contacts and gaining a clear picture of the
problem
2. Gaining new insights (ASSESSMENT/CONSULTATION)- help client obtain a more
differentiated picture of problem
3. Treatment of the problem- do something about the problem
What is an intake?
- Usually first meeting, where you:
● Get to know each other + build a working relationship
● Gain insight into complaints and referral question
● Formulate goals
● Provide information about what to expect
, Basic attitude of the helper
❖ Diagnosis-prescription model→ the helper is an expert in the field and in a
directive way reduces a complex problem into a simple goal
➢ Reduces the chances of helper losing control
➢ Leads to distancing from personal material and a too premature definition of
problems and solutions
➢ Result: advice is often ignored
❖ Cooperation model→helper and client work together on the clarification of the
solution of problem
➢ Unconditional acceptance and own responsibility
➢ Helper lets client know from the beginning about this cooperation and asks
for approval
4 roles of the helper
1. Confidant: creates clarity and calmness, is attentive and understanding, encourages
to speak freely
2. Communicative detective: tries to obtain a clear picture of the clients’ thoughts and
actions. Includes reasoning behind the questions
3. Teacher (CONSULTATION): provides client with a more effective approach to their
problems and discusses how they may best put this to good use
4. Coach (CONSULTATION): assists client in putting new insights into practice and will
help in developing new skills if needed
Goals of the initial interview- The intake
1. Establish a working relationship
2. Gently explore the problems
3. Bring a sense of order to the problems
