Professional Social Work is focused on :
Problem identification
Professional social work begins with, and is centred on, identifying the client's problem correctly. Mary Richmond's 'Social Diagnosis' (1917) made careful study and identification of the problem the foundation of scientific casework.
Every later step of the helping process (assessment, planning, intervention, evaluation) depends on accurate problem identification; a wrongly identified problem leads to a wrong intervention.
Solving the problem and bringing about change are outcomes the client achieves through his or her own capacities and resources, consistent with self-determination; the worker's distinct professional focus is to help identify the problem clearly. 'Problem formulation' is a research-design term rather than the focus of practice.
Hence, the answer is Problem identification.
