Brody is the Care Seeker and Counseling from Case Study: A
Story of Forgiveness
Name
Institution
Brody is the Care Seeker and Counseling from Case Study: a
Story of Forgiveness
Brody was referred for counseling by his counselor in High
School. The school counselor had heard from other people that
Brody was considering harming himself. Brody, having very
little social support, was affected significantly by the loss of his
mother and sister in a terrible car accident. The two people Josh
and Melissa, who would have helped him to grieve, were not
available. His elder brother Josh was away in college at the time
and Melissa being his mother’s best friend was also grieving.
The situation was difficult for Brody to bear because he had
strained relations with the father, and the father had supported

9. the young person that had caused the accident.
Brody's personality falls under the "S” type. According to
Cabonell (2008), persons with the “S” type character are always
complaint and, therefore, will avoid causing any trouble.
Because of not sharing his feelings, Brody felt that no one cared
about him. The loss of his mother was painful to him because
she was the only one that understood and accepted Brody the
way he was. Preliminary observation showed that Brody was not
going to take his life and hence there was no need to establish a
suicidal contract. The observation of Brody’s body language
shows that he was a closed person. The invitation for Brody was
his mother. It was established that talking about her made him
relax and able to engage with other people.
Brody easy speak of the mother provided a way for the
counselor to start developing relationship. The counselor took
the ease in which Brody talked about her mother as an invitation
to guide him through the process of grieving. The counselor
also sought to help Brody to identify a way that he could cope
with the loss and, therefore, live (FAITH). Clinton & Hawkins
(2009), noted that the goal of establishing relations in
counseling help the client to accept the devastating thing and
try to imagine a new bright future.
