LCSW Shari B. Kaplan builds treatment around a biopsychosocial assessment that traces a client's life from prenatal development to now. She asks specific questions most clinicians never ask, surfacing subtle psychological and physical patterns that shape how someone experiences life and informing which interventions might actually work.
I usually get very complex cases, but that's great because we have a very wide tool belt. And, and over the years, it has brought me to create a framework of treatment, which number one is an incredibly thorough biopsychosocial that covers every single area of a person's life from the time they're in the womb till their current day life. And we ask questions that people are often saying to me, nobody's ever asked me that question before. And they're all subtle nuances to what contributes to how a person is experiencing their life and the lens in which they're looking at life through and what their body has been through.
