Reviewthe following report:

Kassi is a 38-year-old White woman who came to the agency seeking substance abuse treatment. She mentioned that she needed to show her employer that she was taking appropriate measures to treat the issue, since it has impacted her productivity at work.

Kassi stated that she works 40+ hours per week as an executive assistant and is also a single parent to a 14-year-old daughter. She reported that her job is quite stressful and requires her to be flexible with her schedule so that she can be available in the evenings, if needed. She mentioned that this causes her to be away from her daughter often, and she misses sporting events, band concerts, and other extracurricular activities and that has strained her relationship with her daughter.

She reported that she often comes home and will have a whiskey on the rocks, and that sometimes turns into 3 or more drinks. She mentioned that this amount has increased over time. This has caused her to be late to work on more than one occasion, and completely miss work once or twice over the last 6 months because she is nauseous, anxious, and has trouble sleeping. Her daughter has mentioned her concern about her drinking since it has also caused her to miss some of her extracurricular activities and her daughter's friends do not want to come over when Kassi is drinking.

Kassi reported that she is only seeking treatment because her work is requiring it, but she does not believe she has a problem with alcohol. When reviewing the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for alcohol use disorder, Kassi meets criteria A. 1, 3, 5, 6, 10a, and 11a. Since this is 6 criteria, she was given a diagnosis of severe alcohol use disorder (303.90).
