Vignette: Utilize this scenario for all of your responses A 42-year-old African American woman was brought to the emergency room by police officers for evaluation prior to going to jail to await disposition. She reported that she had been shopping when "something happened." She said that she had no recollection of events between the time she entered the store and an hour later, when she was arrested for shoplifting in a nearby department store with a considerable amount of stolen property on her person. She protested her innocence and became so agitated, belligerent, and profane that the arresting officers took her to the hospital for evaluation. At the hospital she reported that two years previously she had been arrested for shoplifting and had had amnesia for the act. The charges against her were then dropped because she explained that both the shoplifting and the amnesia resulted from her forgetting to eat after taking her insulin. Of note, her blood-sugar level on testing in the emergency room was elevated. The patient calmed down appearing asymptomatic after the evaluation and was transferred to jail pending a preliminary hearing. When she learned that her release was planned for the next day and that the charges against her would not be dropped, she became extremely agitated, angry, and abusive to the officers. Shortly thereafter, she complained of a headache and said she had no recollection of her abusive behavior. Later that evening she accosted an officer angrily. When the officer responded and addressed the patient by name, "Naomi," the patient said that her name was "Oprah" and that she would not allow herself to be called "Naomi," whom she described as a "wimp and a loser." "Oprah’s" voice and movement were somewhat different from those of "Naomi." She claimed that she had done the shoplifting and stepped back so that "Naomi" could be caught and humiliated, and that if she had wanted to, she could have evaded detection easily. She was returned to the ER and subsequently admitted to the inpatient psychiatric unit for observation. For the next two days, the patient had many apparent switches of personality, accompanied by conspicuous changes in dress, makeup, and demeanor. On several occasions "Oprah" was disrupti.

Working With Families:
The Case of Carol and Joseph
Carol is a 23-year-old, heterosexual, Caucasian female and the
mother of a 1-year-old baby girl. She is currently unemployed,
having previously worked for a house cleaning company. The
baby is healthy and developmentally on target, and she and the
parents appear to be well bonded with one another. Carol lives in
a rented house with her husband, Joseph. Joseph is a 27-year-old,
heterosexual, Hispanic male. He was recently arrested at their
home for a drug deal, which he asserts was a setup. Both parents
were charged with child endangerment because weapons were
found in the child’s crib and drugs were found in the home. The
parents assert that the child never sleeps in the crib but in their
bed. As a result of the parents’ arrest, social services was notified,
and the child was temporarily placed in a kinship care arrangement
with the maternal grandmother, who resides nearby. As a
result of Joseph’s arrest, he was fired from the cleaning company
where he worked, and the family is now experiencing financial
difficulties.
After initial contact was made with the parents, a number of
concerns were noted and the family was recommended for additional
case management. Carol’s mother indicated that she had
concerns about Carol’s drinking habits and stated that Carol’s
father and grandfather were alcoholics. She and the father separated
when Carol was a baby, and Carol has had only limited
contact with him. There appears to be significant tension between
the grandmother and Carol and Joseph. I addressed the alcohol
issue with both parents, who denied there was a problem, but
shortly after the discussion, Carol was involved in a serious car
accident with the baby in the car. She was determined to have been
under the influence of alcohol. I advised Carol that she could not
have any unsupervised contact with her child until she completed
intensive inpatient substance abuse treatment. I made arrangements
for her placement, but after a week, she was discharged
for noncompliance with the rules. She was then referred to an
intensive outpatient program and began therapy there. Initially
her attendance was erratic because she had lost her license as a
result of the DUI. Eventually, however, she became engaged in the
program and began to address her issues. She acknowledged that
she had started using drugs at a very young age but said that she
had only begun drinking in the previous year or so. We discussed
the genetics of her family, and she said that she realized that she
had deteriorated rapidly since beginning to drink and knew that
she simply could not drink alcohol.
Joseph’s mother is deceased, and his father travels extensively
in his job and is not available as a support. Joseph was
very devoted to his mother and was devastated by her premature
death. We discussed the strengths that he and Carol demonstrated
in staying together and working out their p.
Client is a 17 year old African American male that presented for.docxbartholomeocoombs
Client is a 17 year old African American male that presented for a Comprehensive Assessment to determine eligibility for services. Though biologically male, she has socially transitioned and prefers to be addressed as Charmaine. The client identifies as a female. Her outward appearance was that of a teenage female. Present at the assessment was foster parent. During the assessment, client was argumentative with foster parent and disrespectful; indicating she did not want to come for services. Client reports she has no issues. She is resistant to available resources.
Information gathered was obtained from other records and the foster mom. The client engages in disruptive behaviors and these behaviors have been evident for an extended period of time. Client recently moved to this foster placement. Client’s history is significant for multiple placement changes. She was adopted at approximately the age of four (4) and was placed in DSS custody at age 16. Prior to a request to have the client moved from the former placement, the client cut her genitals (scrotum) with a razor, requiring fifteen (15) stitches to close the wound. The client reports that it was a “shaving accident” and her hand slipped when she was trying to shave her legs. When asked about consideration for a gender reassignment, client responded she was unsure. Documents indicate she has discussed previously.
It has been reported that the client is overtly defiant with adult authority figures, and often responds with attempts to engage others in verbal arguments. She has shown a pattern of poor emotional regulation. The client has been involved with mental health services for an extended period of time and she has struggled with behaviors and interpersonal interactions. Her problematic interpersonal interactions are often triggered by being unable to obtain her immediate wants, and this poor impulse control often leads to emotional displays of anger and frustration, and they often interfere with her ability to maintain a positive interaction with others.

Presentation of the Problem
Ryan is a 61 year old Caucasian male who was arrested for violating a no-contact orderwith his ex-husband and two adopted sons. Police were called when he attempted to “break in” to the family home to obtain some personal belongings. While at the home, his ex-husband returned and a physical altercation ensued in which Ryan allegedly attacked his ex-husband with a kitchen knife. No injuries were noted by police; His ex-husband, however, expressed intent to press assault charges. The circumstances surrounding the no-contact order are related to a series of incidences involving allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior with his children. Six months before, a long history of marriage conflict “came to a head” and he informed Ryan that he wished to file for divorce. Ryan’s ex-husband left the home with their two sons and filed a no-contact order against Ryan. The basis of the no-contact order included allegations that Ryan had a “secret life of sex addiction,” including frequent activity on “sex apps” and that he viewed pornography in front of their two sons. The ex-husband also alleged Ryan’s inappropriate relationship with their oldest son, 16 year old, citing that he discovered sexually-provocative language in text messages. A Child Protective Services Investigation and report was completed. Ryan adamantly denies these allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior with and in front of the children; He did however, verify he had been active on “sex apps” throughout the relationships in order to “hook up” with other men.
Psychosocial History
Ryan was born and raised in rural Mississippi. He comes from an intact family and is the youngest of four children. He referenced a narrative within the family that characterized him as the “unplanned pregnancy.” Ryan described a “good childhood” and he denied a history of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. He graduated from college and has had a successful career as an insurance broker.
When Ryan was age 9, his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer.She passed away four years later. This event caused tremendous emotional pain. After his mother’s death, his father began using alcohol heavily and eventually received voluntary inpatient treatment. Ryan reported a strained relationship with his father and a sense of rejection after he told his father he was homosexual. He experienced significant inner emotional conflict as an adolescent related to his sexuality. He began to seek sexual contact with others and by age 17 was having sex with men for money. He does not believe he has a sexual addiction and denied any compulsive sexual .

The Case of Carol and Joseph
Carol is a 23-year-old, heterosexual, Caucasian female and the
mother of a 1-year-old baby girl. She is currently unemployed,
having previously worked for a house cleaning company. The
baby is healthy and developmentally on target, and she and the
parents appear to be well bonded with one another. Carol lives in
a rented house with her husband, Joseph. Joseph is a 27-year-old,
heterosexual, Hispanic male. He was recently arrested at their
home for a drug deal, which he asserts was a setup. Both parents
were charged with child endangerment because weapons were
found in the child’s crib and drugs were found in the home. The

Aileen Wuornos was a real-life female serial killer. As a child, her father was convicted of sexually abusing children and killed himself in prison. At one point he was diagnosed as schizophrenic. Wuornus was abandoned by her mother at four years old and forced to live with her abusive grandparents. After having a baby at 14 she was kicked out of her grandparent’s home and lived on the streets as a prostitute. Wuornos was convicted of six life sentences for killing men she accused of either raping her or attempting to rape her.
Based on your reading this week, define, in your own words, forensic psychology as a specific example of applied behavioral science, and describe how forensic psychology could have been helpful in this case.
“Forensic psychology is a field of study that applies scientific psychological knowledge to legal issues pertaining to criminal offenders and the criminal justice system. Identify trends in forensic psychology that would prove helpful” (McCarthy et al, 2016, section 6.1). I would define it as the application and education of reliable scientific psychology in the criminal justice system. Forensic psychologist can evaluate human behaviors and based on scientifically reliable assessments determine the dangerousness to a person’s self or society at large. The can also look for common diagnosis to determine if a person is fit to stand trial. In the case of Wuornus, a forensic psychologist could have examined her RAP sheet to determine if she was a threat to society. She was arrested for several crimes, including armed robbery and assault. In the biosocial age, criminologist now have access to genetic and brain imaging data. I think it would have been worth assessing her for schizophrenia. She stated that the men she killed either raped her or attempted to rape her until she was executed. Paranoia is common in schizophrenics and some believed she was convinced that she was raped or about to be raped. In her mind the murders were justified.

Caso 24
La paciente es una joven de 24 años. Es soltera, vive con sus padres y su hermana menor en un departamento en un quinto piso. Trabaja como vendedora en un comercio pequeño en un suburbio de la ciudad.
Motivo de consulta: Después de discutir con sus padres amenazó con matarse saltando por la ventana. Los padres no sabían qué hacer y llamaron al médico de familia, el que los derivó a un servicio de psiquiatría. La paciente había estado en su habitación escuchando heavy metal rock en su estéreo. Tenía el volumen muy alto, entonces sus padres fueron a su habitación y le pidieron que bajara “esa música de locos” . Ella se rehusó y comenzó otra pelea. Cuando su madre apagó el estéreo, la paciente abrió la ventana y amenazó con saltar. Después de mucho discutir a los gritos, aceptó ser enviada al hospital. Una vez allí aceptó quedarse, sólo porque “la situación en la casa se había vuelto casi imposible”. De acuerdo a sus padres, esta situación había sido “catastrófica” los últimos cinco años. La paciente podía ser bastante agradable por momentos, pero se enojaba y se volvía peleadora enseguida sin razón aparente. Parecía contenta y satisfecha durante una hora o mas, y de repente se quejaba de que la vida no valía la pena ser vivida. En varias ocasiones se fue de la casa para ir a vivir en un pequeño departamento sóla. Pero, luego de cada oportunidad, volvió después de un tiempo para vivir con sus padres nuevamente. Nunca parecía saber qué era lo que realmente quería, dijeron sus padres. Sus planes para el futuro eran totalmente irreales y de todas maneras cambiaba los mismos en forma constante.
Antecedentes: de acuerdo con sus padres, la paciente había sido una chica normal hasta su adolescencia. Alrededor de los trece años, se volvió más difícil. Aunque era una niña inteligente, tenía problemas en la escuela. Tenía muy buenas notas en las materias que le interesaban, pero fracasaba completamente en las que no le gustaban. Además, sus profesores se quejaban de que era muy indisciplinada . En su casa tenía muchas discusiones con sus padres y su hermana por causas triviales. A los 15 años, se le pidió que cambie de escuela porque había fracasado en las materias. Insistió en que quería ingresar en una escuela técnica, lo que hizo. Era la única mujer de su curso y un año después abandonó porque no le gustaba más la escuela. Comenzó un curso de arte en otra escuela pero pronto desertó de todo y comenzó a trabajar en un negocio como vendedora. En los siguientes años cambió de trabajo con frecuencia. En tres ocasiones, se quedó sin trabajo por varios meses. Había comenzado un nuevo trabajo cuatro meses antes de ser internada y estaba considerando cambiarlo de nuevo.
Los padres de la paciente dijeron que ella no tenía amigos estables y que rompía las relaciones sin mayores razones. Sus relaciones con otros jóvenes fueron descriptas como “íntimas” pero ...
Generalist practice in social work is an approach to client servic.docxJeanmarieColbert3
Generalist practice
in social work is an approach to client service that makes use of a variety of methods, schools of thought, and perspectives.

Generalist social work practitioners stay informed of current research in their field, and they select methods that seem most appropriate to the different situations that their clients face.
For this Assignment,
select one of the case studies provided in the Readings. Consider different ways of describing generalist practice and how you might identify it in social work.
Submit a 2- to 3-page paper in which you address the following criteria:
Create a definition of generalist practice using your own words.
Identify at least three specific examples of generalist practices you see portrayed in your selected case study.
Indicate the characteristics that make each an example of generalist practice.
Explain the effectiveness (or ineffectiveness) of each example in terms of its benefit to clients.

Working With Survivors of Sexual Abuse and Trauma: The Case of Angela
Angela is a 27-year-old, Caucasian female, who first came to counseling to address her history of sexual abuse. She graduated from college with a BS in chemistry and has since been employed by pharmaceutical companies. After obtaining a new job, she relo¬cated to an apartment in an East Coast city where she knew no one. Both of Angela’s parents live on the West Coast, and she has one younger brother who also lives in a different state. Angela has limited contact with both her mother and brother and does not have any contact with her father. Angela is obese and disclosed a history of struggling with her weight and eating issues. She has few friends, and those she does have live far away.
Angela has a long history of trauma in her life. She was sexually abused between the ages of 9 and 21 by her father, sexually assaulted at the age of 14 by a classmate in school, and mugged as a young adult. There was domestic violence in the home, also perpetrated by her father. Angela’s father is considered an upstanding member of the community, and he is well liked and respected by others. No one in Angela’s family believes that she was sexually abused, and her father joined a “false memory syndrome” group and is outspoken about that issue. There has been little discussion in her family about what took place in the home while she was growing up.
Angela struggled with daily functioning and exhibited symp¬toms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). She had a history of cutting herself and binge eating and displayed some charac¬teristics of borderline personality disorder. Angela also mildly dissociated when under duress..

For this assignment, consider the following case and then using the internet, course materials, and the Library, compose reasoned responses to the questions that follow.
In the mid 1970s, a nursing educator in Idaho had contact, through a student, with a female client who had chronic myelogenous leukemia. This form of leukemia can often be managed for years with little or no chemotherapy. The woman had done well for about twelve years and ascribed her good condition to health foods and a strict nutritional regime. However, her condition had turned worse several weeks before and her physician had advised her that she needed chemotherapy if she were to have any chance at survival. The physician had also advised her of the potential side effects of the therapy including hair loss, nausea, fever, and immune system suppression.
The woman consented to the therapy and signed the appropriate forms, but later, she began to have second thoughts. The nursing educator and student had given the patient one dose of the therapy when the woman began to cry and express her reservations about the therapy. She questioned the nurse about alternative treatments to the use of chemotherapy. The patient related that she had accepted the therapy because her son had advised her that this was the best treatment. She related that she had not asked about alternate forms of treatment as the physician had indicated that chemotherapy was the only treatment indicated. The nurse did not discuss the patient's concerns with the physician, and later that evening, she talked to the patient about alternate therapies. In the discussion, rather nontraditional and controversial therapies were covered including reflexology and the use of laetrile. During the talk, the nurse made it very clear that the treatments under discussion were not sanctioned by the medical community.
The patient's feelings toward alternate therapies were strengthened by the evening's conversation; however, she continued with chemotherapy. The treatments, however, did not bring remission to her crisis and she died two weeks later. Upon hearing about the conversation between the off duty nurse educator and his patient, the physician brought charges against the nurse for unprofessional conduct and interfering with the patient-physician relationship. (In re Tuma, 1977).
1. What, if anything, did the nurse do wrong?
2. Had she moved beyond her scope of practice?
3. Could the nurse's conduct be justified under the patient advocate portion of her role?
4. If you were a member of the state board for nursing and had to decide the issue of unprofessional conduct and interference with the patient-physician relationship, would you sanction the nurse?
Support your responses with evidence and cite your sources.

Diagnostic overview
Schizophrenia is the most debilitating form of mental illness . This disorder which can come on quite suddenly distorts a person thoughts , perceptions and mood, and leaves them unable to meet the ordinary demands of life .
There is no single test to determine who suffers from schizophrenia. Instead the diagnoses is made when a person expresses a collection set of symptoms. The symptoms can be divided into three categories. One positive symptoms two negative symptoms and three social dysfunction.
One positive sentence
Positive symptoms include overt behaviors that are unusual and that interferes with the persons ability to interact in a daily life. The Two most common types of positive symptoms include delusional and hallucinations. It is essential to understand the difference between these two.
A delusion is a firmly held beliefs that is not grounded in real life. There are many types of delusions for example when a person vastly overestimate his or her importance we would ...
To prepare Use a differential diagnosis process and analysis maryettamckinnel
To prepare:
Use a differential diagnosis process and analysis of the Mental Status Exam in "The Case of L" to determine if the case meets the criteria for a clinical diagnosis.
Questions:
Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10-CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may need clinical attention).
Explain the full diagnosis, matching the symptoms of the case to the criteria for any diagnoses used.
Identify 2-3 of the close differentials that you considered for the case and have ruled out. Concisely explain why these conditions were considered but eliminated.
Identify the assessments you recommend to validate treatment. Explain the rationale behind choosing the assessment instruments to support, clarify, or track treatment progress for the diagnosis.
Explain your recommendations for initial resources and treatment. Use scholarly resources to support your evidence-based treatment recommendations.
Explain how you took cultural factors and diversity into account when making the assessment and recommending interventions.
Identify client strengths, and explain how you would utilize strengths throughout treatment.
Identify specific knowledge or skills you would need to obtain to effectively treat this client, and provide a plan on how you will do so.
These questions are based on the following case:
The Case of L Presenting Problem Client presented in the emergency room (ER) having been brought in the previous night by her parents. Following an argument with her parents, L cut her right wrist. L's mother reported that L started screaming rapidly and became physically violent toward her prior to cutting her own wrist. Psychological Data L is a 17-year-old Hispanic female who resides in Pennsylvania with her mother, father, and older sister. She is in 11th grade at the local public school. L appeared to be of average to above-average intelligence, as she was able to respond to numerous questions in an articulate and intelligent manner. She was well versed about world history and current affairs. Her mother confirmed that she has done well in school, maintaining a B+ average and participating in various school activities (e.g., chorus, school paper) until last year. L slowly dropped out of many activities she liked in the past. Her mother noticed about 8 months ago that L had also begun having difficulty doing schoolwork. Erratic behavior arose during episodes when L also became irritable and explosive. During these repeated episodes, she became quite defiant, cut classes, had to be placed in school detention, and had even assaulted the principal. L has numerous friends and believed she can relate to all types of people. She has a boyfriend who adores her, but she said she doesn't feel the same about him. The school counselor confirmed that L is outgoing, popular, and smart; but during these episodes she became another person, one who is very ...
1. Leroy died suddenly, leaving behind him Margret, his wife, who .docxjackiewalcutt
1. Leroy died suddenly, leaving behind him Margret, his wife, who was suffering from atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) of the brain, for whom he had cared devotedly because she was practically an invalid. In his will, he left his substantial estate to her, to go upon her death to his side of the family. He had actually earned all the money because Margret had never gone to work. Margret’s sister, Anne, and her husband Eric an attorney agreed to take care of her, putting her into a skilled nursing facility near their home for which all expenses were paid from Leroy’s estate. While she was still alive, they changed Margret’s will, splitting the estate 40/60 in favor of her side of the family. They had a doctor certify that she was mentally competent to make such a change, but Leroy’s family, who had visited her, noticed that she was capable of very little in the way of decision-making. As longtime friend of Anne and Eric, they had trusted them not to do anything improper. When they learned that Anne and Eric had changed Leroy’s will under what they felt to be very shady circumstances, they accused them of stealing.
Do you believe that what Anne and Eric did was theft? Why or why not? If they felt their side of family had been wronged, was there anything that Anne and Eric could have done differently to rectify the problem?
2. A psychologist wants to videotape some of his patients during their therapy sessions, partly as a study he is doing and partly as a teaching device for advanced psychology students. He feels that if the patients know they are being taped, they won’t act naturally, which will both taint his study and diminish the film’s value as a teaching device. For this reason, he feels that the patients should not know that they are being taped even though what they do or say on the tape may reveal certain aspects of their private feelings and lives.
What should the psychologist do? Should he tell the patients he is taping them, or should he just go ahead and tape without their permission, assuming that he is just going to use the tapes for his own research and as a teaching device? Are there any other alternatives you can think of for the psychologist to follow?
3. Laura, a 19 years old woman, fell into a coma because of an overdose of drugs and alcohol. She was given emergency treatment at a hospital and was placed on a respirator, which stabilized her breathing. She remained in a deep coma, and when she was tested by neurologists; and neurosurgeons it was discovered that about 70 percent of her brain was irretrievably damaged. She was not brain dead, however: she reacted to pain, her eyes sometimes would open and her pupils contract, she would at times thrash about and her EEG showed some brain activity. She was in a PVS. Because she could not be pronounced dead in any medical or legal sense, the hospital and doctors refused to take her off the respirator or to stop any other treatments they were giving her.

Working With Families:
The Case of Carol and Joseph
Carol is a 23-year-old, heterosexual, Caucasian female and the
mother of a 1-year-old baby girl. She is currently unemployed,
having previously worked for a house cleaning company. The
baby is healthy and developmentally on target, and she and the
parents appear to be well bonded with one another. Carol lives in
a rented house with her husband, Joseph. Joseph is a 27-year-old,
heterosexual, Hispanic male. He was recently arrested at their
home for a drug deal, which he asserts was a setup. Both parents
were charged with child endangerment because weapons were
found in the child’s crib and drugs were found in the home. The
parents assert that the child never sleeps in the crib but in their
bed. As a result of the parents’ arrest, social services was notified,
and the child was temporarily placed in a kinship care arrange-
ment with the maternal grandmother, who resides nearby. As a
result of Joseph’s arrest, he was fired from the cleaning company
where he worked, and the family is now experiencing financial
difficulties.
After initial contact was made with the parents, a number of
concerns were noted and the family was recommended for addi-
tional case management. Carol’s mother indicated that she had
concerns about Carol’s drinking habits and stated that Carol’s
father and grandfather were alcoholics. She and the father sepa-
rated when Carol was a baby, and Carol has had only limited
contact with him. There appears to be significant tension between
the grandmother and Carol and Joseph. I addressed the alcohol
issue with both parents, who denied there was a problem, but
shortly after the discussion, Carol was involved in a serious car
accident with the baby in the car. She was determined to have been
under the influence of alcohol. I advised Carol that she could not
have any unsupervised contact with her child until she completed
intensive inpatient substance abuse treatment. I made arrange-
ments for her placement, but after a week, she was discharged
for noncompliance with the rules. She was then referred to an
intensive outpatient program and began therapy there. Initially

her attendance was erratic because she had lost her license as a

program and began to address her issues. She acknowledged that
she had started using drugs at a very young age but said that she
had only begun drinking in the previous year or so. We discussed
the genetics of her family, and she said that she realized that she
had deteriorated rapidly since beginning to drink and knew that
she simply could not drink alcohol.

Aileen Wuornos was a real-life female serial killer. As a child, her father was convicted of sexually abusing children and killed himself in prison. At one point he was diagnosed as schizophrenic. Wuornus was abandoned by her mother at four years old and forced to live with her abusive grandparents. After having a baby at 14 she was kicked out of her grandparent’s home and lived on the streets as a prostitute. Wuornos was convicted of six life sentences for killing men she accused of either raping her or attempting to rape her.
Based on your reading this week, define, in your own words, forensic psychology as a specific example of applied behavioral science, and describe how forensic psychology could have been helpful in this case.
“Forensic psychology is a field of study that applies scientific psychological knowledge to legal issues pertaining to criminal offenders and the criminal justice system. Identify trends in forensic psychology that would prove helpful” (McCarthy et al, 2016, section 6.1). I would define it as the application and education of reliable scientific psychology in the criminal justice system. Forensic psychologist can evaluate human behaviors and based on scientifically reliable assessments determine the dangerousness to a person’s self or society at large. The can also look for common diagnosis to determine if a person is fit to stand trial. In the case of Wuornus, a forensic psychologist could have examined her RAP sheet to determine if she was a threat to society. She was arrested for several crimes, including armed robbery and assault. In the biosocial age, criminologist now have access to genetic and brain imaging data. I think it would have been worth assessing her for schizophrenia. She stated that the men she killed either raped her or attempted to rape her until she was executed. Paranoia is common in schizophrenics and some believed she was convinced that she was raped or about to be raped. In her mind the murders were justified.

Caso 24
La paciente es una joven de 24 años. Es soltera, vive con sus padres y su hermana menor en un departamento en un quinto piso. Trabaja como vendedora en un comercio pequeño en un suburbio de la ciudad.
Motivo de consulta: Después de discutir con sus padres amenazó con matarse saltando por la ventana. Los padres no sabían qué hacer y llamaron al médico de familia, el que los derivó a un servicio de psiquiatría. La paciente había estado en su habitación escuchando heavy metal rock en su estéreo. Tenía el volumen muy alto, entonces sus padres fueron a su habitación y le pidieron que bajara “esa música de locos” . Ella se rehusó y comenzó otra pelea. Cuando su madre apagó el estéreo, la paciente abrió la ventana y amenazó con saltar. Después de mucho discutir a los gritos, aceptó ser enviada al hospital. Una vez allí aceptó quedarse, sólo porque “la situación en la casa se había vuelto casi imposible”. De acuerdo a sus padres, esta situación había sido “catastrófica” los últimos cinco años. La paciente podía ser bastante agradable por momentos, pero se enojaba y se volvía peleadora enseguida sin razón aparente. Parecía contenta y satisfecha durante una hora o mas, y de repente se quejaba de que la vida no valía la pena ser vivida. En varias ocasiones se fue de la casa para ir a vivir en un pequeño departamento sóla. Pero, luego de cada oportunidad, volvió después de un tiempo para vivir con sus padres nuevamente. Nunca parecía saber qué era lo que realmente quería, dijeron sus padres. Sus planes para el futuro eran totalmente irreales y de todas maneras cambiaba los mismos en forma constante.
Antecedentes: de acuerdo con sus padres, la paciente había sido una chica normal hasta su adolescencia. Alrededor de los trece años, se volvió más difícil. Aunque era una niña inteligente, tenía problemas en la escuela. Tenía muy buenas notas en las materias que le interesaban, pero fracasaba completamente en las que no le gustaban. Además, sus profesores se quejaban de que era muy indisciplinada . En su casa tenía muchas discusiones con sus padres y su hermana por causas triviales. A los 15 años, se le pidió que cambie de escuela porque había fracasado en las materias. Insistió en que quería ingresar en una escuela técnica, lo que hizo. Era la única mujer de su curso y un año después abandonó porque no le gustaba más la escuela. Comenzó un curso de arte en otra escuela pero pronto desertó de todo y comenzó a trabajar en un negocio como vendedora. En los siguientes años cambió de trabajo con frecuencia. En tres ocasiones, se quedó sin trabajo por varios meses. Había comenzado un nuevo trabajo cuatro meses antes de ser internada y estaba considerando cambiarlo de nuevo.
Los padres de la paciente dijeron que ella no tenía amigos estables y que rompía las relaciones sin mayores razones. Sus relaciones con otros jóvenes fueron descriptas como “íntimas” pero ...
Generalist practice in social work is an approach to client servic.docxJeanmarieColbert3
Generalist practice
in social work is an approach to client service that makes use of a variety of methods, schools of thought, and perspectives.

One positive sentence

To prepare Use a differential diagnosis process and analysis maryettamckinnel
To prepare:
Use a differential diagnosis process and analysis of the Mental Status Exam in "The Case of L" to determine if the case meets the criteria for a clinical diagnosis.
Questions:
Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10-CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may need clinical attention).
Explain the full diagnosis, matching the symptoms of the case to the criteria for any diagnoses used.
Identify 2-3 of the close differentials that you considered for the case and have ruled out. Concisely explain why these conditions were considered but eliminated.
Identify the assessments you recommend to validate treatment. Explain the rationale behind choosing the assessment instruments to support, clarify, or track treatment progress for the diagnosis.
Explain your recommendations for initial resources and treatment. Use scholarly resources to support your evidence-based treatment recommendations.
Explain how you took cultural factors and diversity into account when making the assessment and recommending interventions.
Identify client strengths, and explain how you would utilize strengths throughout treatment.
Identify specific knowledge or skills you would need to obtain to effectively treat this client, and provide a plan on how you will do so.
These questions are based on the following case:
The Case of L Presenting Problem Client presented in the emergency room (ER) having been brought in the previous night by her parents. Following an argument with her parents, L cut her right wrist. L's mother reported that L started screaming rapidly and became physically violent toward her prior to cutting her own wrist. Psychological Data L is a 17-year-old Hispanic female who resides in Pennsylvania with her mother, father, and older sister. She is in 11th grade at the local public school. L appeared to be of average to above-average intelligence, as she was able to respond to numerous questions in an articulate and intelligent manner. She was well versed about world history and current affairs. Her mother confirmed that she has done well in school, maintaining a B+ average and participating in various school activities (e.g., chorus, school paper) until last year. L slowly dropped out of many activities she liked in the past. Her mother noticed about 8 months ago that L had also begun having difficulty doing schoolwork. Erratic behavior arose during episodes when L also became irritable and explosive. During these repeated episodes, she became quite defiant, cut classes, had to be placed in school detention, and had even assaulted the principal. L has numerous friends and believed she can relate to all types of people. She has a boyfriend who adores her, but she said she doesn't feel the same about him. The school counselor confirmed that L is outgoing, popular, and smart; but during these episodes she became another person, one who is very ...
1. Leroy died suddenly, leaving behind him Margret, his wife, who .docxjackiewalcutt
1. Leroy died suddenly, leaving behind him Margret, his wife, who was suffering from atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) of the brain, for whom he had cared devotedly because she was practically an invalid. In his will, he left his substantial estate to her, to go upon her death to his side of the family. He had actually earned all the money because Margret had never gone to work. Margret’s sister, Anne, and her husband Eric an attorney agreed to take care of her, putting her into a skilled nursing facility near their home for which all expenses were paid from Leroy’s estate. While she was still alive, they changed Margret’s will, splitting the estate 40/60 in favor of her side of the family. They had a doctor certify that she was mentally competent to make such a change, but Leroy’s family, who had visited her, noticed that she was capable of very little in the way of decision-making. As longtime friend of Anne and Eric, they had trusted them not to do anything improper. When they learned that Anne and Eric had changed Leroy’s will under what they felt to be very shady circumstances, they accused them of stealing.
Do you believe that what Anne and Eric did was theft? Why or why not? If they felt their side of family had been wronged, was there anything that Anne and Eric could have done differently to rectify the problem?
2. A psychologist wants to videotape some of his patients during their therapy sessions, partly as a study he is doing and partly as a teaching device for advanced psychology students. He feels that if the patients know they are being taped, they won’t act naturally, which will both taint his study and diminish the film’s value as a teaching device. For this reason, he feels that the patients should not know that they are being taped even though what they do or say on the tape may reveal certain aspects of their private feelings and lives.
What should the psychologist do? Should he tell the patients he is taping them, or should he just go ahead and tape without their permission, assuming that he is just going to use the tapes for his own research and as a teaching device? Are there any other alternatives you can think of for the psychologist to follow?
3. Laura, a 19 years old woman, fell into a coma because of an overdose of drugs and alcohol. She was given emergency treatment at a hospital and was placed on a respirator, which stabilized her breathing. She remained in a deep coma, and when she was tested by neurologists; and neurosurgeons it was discovered that about 70 percent of her brain was irretrievably damaged. She was not brain dead, however: she reacted to pain, her eyes sometimes would open and her pupils contract, she would at times thrash about and her EEG showed some brain activity. She was in a PVS. Because she could not be pronounced dead in any medical or legal sense, the hospital and doctors refused to take her off the respirator or to stop any other treatments they were giving her. At one p ...

Title: HIV among Young Men Who Have Sex with Men
Section 1: Background Information
All of this is opinion and needs to come out.
Sex is seemingly as old as the world is. However, sex among men, and especially young men having sex with men has not always been in the books of history. This is arguably one of the latest practices, although some sources have claims of sex among men after the antediluvian period. While sex has positive effects such as procreation, there are some negative effects which include contraction of deadly sexually transmitted diseases.
One such disease is HIV/AIDS.
HIV/AIDS is an acronym for
Human ImmunoDefiency Virus/ Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome

Introduction
The issue of young men having sex with other men has continued to be a thorny issue for a number of years, dividing the society between those who support this practice and those who oppose it. Supporters of young men having sex with other men argue that people have a right to decide their sexual orientation and preferences without undue pressure from external forces. However, those who oppose this practice argue that it emanated from social decay and as such should not be supported. One common point of agreement between these two camps is that the practice of young men having sex with men is risk and has the capability to cause grave danger to these men.
opinion
Although sex even among heterosexual could turn out to be risk and a cause of contraction of dangerous sexually transmitted diseases and infections, the risk of contraction of such health complications is doubly higher among young men who have sex with other men.
There are several reasons that c.

Boundary Issues
It may not be possible or reasonable for counselors to always avoid dual relationships with clients. For example, counselors who live and work in small rural communities may attend the same religious institutions as their clients, or use the same libraries, doctors, or other services. In these multiple-relationship situations, counselors would not be in violation of ethical standards if they took reasonable steps to protect their objectivity and efficacy, and to avoid possibilities of exploitation or harm.
Counselors and supervisors usually consider dual relationships on a continuum of risk. As you work through the notion of dual relationships, you should consider the relationship with your client and the context of the situation. It is also important to consider the impact of dual roles on the power dynamics of the therapeutic relationship. For example, clients, students, and supervisees have less experience, knowledge, and power compared with licensed counselors and supervisors. Consequently, they are less likely to recognize inappropriate boundary crossings or to express their concerns about these crossings. It is your responsibility as an ethical practitioner to monitor and ensure appropriate boundaries across all related counseling situations.
For this Discussion, review the
Clinical Mental Health Counseling: Boundary Issues
media and consider the population that you are interested in working with as a professional counselor. Then, review the Learning Resources for this week and explore potential boundary issues you may encounter while working with this population. Reflect on potential benefit or harm related to boundary crossing. Finally, consider potential consultants who might be able to address any boundary issues.
Post by Day 3
a brief description of the population you selected. Then, explain any potential boundary issues you anticipate may be challenging in working with this population and explain why. Explain the potential benefit or harm associated with boundary crossing with this population. Finally, explain who you might consult with to address this boundary issue and why.
Be sure to use the Learning Resources and the current literature to support your response.
Respond by Day 5
and expand on your colleague’s posting by providing an alternate perspective on how you would work with your colleague’s selected population. Provide potential boundary crossing challenges that your colleague did not discuss and offer potential solutions for addressing these challenges.

Please Paraphrase the following into a more scholarly tone:"
"I feel like after reading these excerpts I feel like the first answer clarified what exactly Gus Casely-Hayford was really trying to figure out about Ethiopian history. It was clear that he was trying to figure out its history, however, it was difficult to put the pieces together and pinpoint things that could lead to it's past. I don't think it was a specific sentence it was really just how they answered it that helped me put it together.
A sentence in another paragraph that clarified what the answer was at number two when it said "After this, Ethiopia switched to Christianity, which has a direct link with the history of the kingdom. The Patriarch claims that the Ark of the Covenant was brought to Ethiopia". It clarifies what the patriarch really meant when he said that they had accepted the old testament.
These excerpts can help when I am doing homework because they can be used as a structure when answering questions for my future homework. In my next homework, I will aim to have more references and actually pinpoint what the answer is because I feel like I do not fully answer the question I only answer it partially. So I can turn in something rather than nothing. It is sometimes difficult to understand the main idea or interpret what some people are saying in the documentaries. The readings, however, are easier to understand.

For example, if I walked into one church, I might find folks picking up and handling snakes, singing rather loudly and outwardly in their expressions of worship. If I went to the congregation next door the following Sunday, I might find a church that barely whispered, used no music at all, and perhaps simply followed a monotone lecture/sermon style delivered over the course of an hour, or two, or three!

Application:
Applying Theoretical Interventions for Clients Experiencing Life Transition and Developmental Issues, Part II
Marriage, couple, and family counselors have varying caseloads. What they all have in common is that their group of clients—whether large or small—represents the variety of human experience. Even those counselors with a specific clinical focus see variety in the ways in which specific issues manifest in different relationships. Part of the goal of your counseling program is to expose you to varying scenarios so that when you are faced with differing client situations, you will have the evidence-based research knowledge, flexibility, analytical skills, and theory-integration practice to know the best course of action to take with a particular couple or family.
To prepare for this Application Assignment, select and view one movie from the list provided in this week’s Learning Resources. Begin to conceptualize the couple's or family’s problem through your theoretical orientation and identify interventions that you might use. Finally, begin to locate articles in the Walden Library that could be used to justify the interventions you selected.
The assignment (2–3 pages)
Identify the movie you selected and the life transition/developmental issue present in the couple/family.
Conceptualize the couple's/family's problem through your chosen theoretical orientation.
Describe two interventions you would use to address these couple/family issues and how you would use them. (
Note
: The interventions may not emerge from your chosen theoretical orientation.)
Justify the intervention you selected with two evidence-based research articles.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

this scenario for all of your responses A 42-year-old African
American woman was brought to the emergency room by police
officers for evaluation prior to going to jail to await disposition.
She reported that she had been shopping when "something
happened." She said that she had no recollection of events
between the time she entered the store and an hour later, when
she was arrested for shoplifting in a nearby department store
with a considerable amount of stolen property on her person.
She protested her innocence and became so agitated,
belligerent, and profane that the arresting officers took her to
the hospital for evaluation. At the hospital she reported that two
years previously she had been arrested for shoplifting and had
had amnesia for the act. The charges against her were then
dropped because she explained that both the shoplifting and the
amnesia resulted from her forgetting to eat after taking her
insulin. Of note, her blood-sugar level on testing in the
emergency room was elevated. The patient calmed down
appearing asymptomatic after the evaluation and was transferred
to jail pending a preliminary hearing. When she learned that her
release was planned for the next day and that the charges
against her would not be dropped, she became extremely
agitated, angry, and abusive to the officers. Shortly thereafter,
she complained of a headache and said she had no recollection
2. of her abusive behavior. Later that evening she accosted an
officer angrily. When the officer responded and addressed the
patient by name, "Naomi," the patient said that her name was
"Oprah" and that she would not allow herself to be called
"Naomi," whom she described as a "wimp and a loser."
"Oprah’s" voice and movement were somewhat different from
those of "Naomi." She claimed that she had done the shoplifting
and stepped back so that "Naomi" could be caught and
humiliated, and that if she had wanted to, she could have evaded
detection easily. She was returned to the ER and subsequently
admitted to the inpatient psychiatric unit for observation. For
the next two days, the patient had many apparent switches of
personality, accompanied by conspicuous changes in dress,
makeup, and demeanor. On several occasions "Oprah" was
disruptive, and twice "Naomi" reported to nurses that she had
found things belonging to other patients in her possession.
There were no consistent differences in blood-sugar levels in
the different personalities or changes at the time of the shifts. A
neurological workup with extensive electroencephalographic
studies proved unremarkable. The patient began to complain
that her behavior was out of her control and that she could not
be held accountable for it. Each day's progress notes revealed
further details of the differences between "Oprah" and "Naomi."
A counselor was asked to see the patient. He observed the
presence of both "Oprah" and "Naomi" and documented their
polarized and clear-cut differences. The personalities were
detailed and elaborate as they discussed issues relating to the
patient's current legal difficulties. He learned that the patient
had an extensive history of discrepant behaviors that she had
"forgotten," to which many witnesses would attest, and that her
family often remarked that she was "like two different people."
He found that these episodes had usually occurred when the
patient had engaged in behavior that brought adverse personal
consequences upon her. He noted that the patient was on a unit
that, by coincidence, had three other patients with similar
symptomology and that, beginning the day the patient learned
3. that the charges against her would not be dropped, she had
begun to associate more frequently with those patients. An
extensive history, taken over several days, and ancillary sources
failed to reveal any history of childhood abuse and there was no
indication that the patient had experienced any other
overwhelming traumatic events. Furthermore, the history
indicated that the patient, despite the apparently classic nature
of her two personalities, had never shown or complained of any
other significant psychological symptomology. Her history
includes having been raised as an only child in a middle-class
urban environment by her mother and grandmother. She reports
that she has a good relationship with all members of her family
although she has a more distant relationship with her father,
who works long hours as an engineer. His mother and
grandmother work as teachers in nearby private schools. Both
her parents are of Haitian descent though the patient was born
and has lived her entire life in the United States. The patient’s
developmental history includes having met all physical and
cognitive developmental milestones on time, with mild
difficulties in reading and peer relationships. In early
elementary school she was reported to have had some ‘acting
out’ problems including hitting another child, and talking back
to adults, however, these behaviors were not severe or long-
term enough to warrant suspension or ongoing concern. In high
school, no behavior problems were noted, and she was described
as socially somewhat reclusive, having only one or two close
friends. Prior hospital records were found for “Naomi”
indicating a long history of alcohol, heroin, and cocaine use,
but upon confrontation about this history she claimed to have
been clean for three weeks prior to her arrest. Her initial blood
work was positive for both opiods and cannabis. The counselor
also noted that the "Naomi" he was interviewing was somewhat
different from the "Naomi" with whom her family and friends
were familiar. The usual "Naomi" was pleasant and mild-
mannered unless "crossed," at which times she became angry
and belligerent. He also found that the patient was not very
4. hypnotizable. He undertook a prolonged interview in which he
covered a wide range of topics over several hours. As the
interview proceeded, "Oprah," who was completely consistent in
her presentation during her discussion of matters related to the
shoplifting and disruptive events on the ward, began to become
inconsistent in her voice and manner. She complained that the
consultant disbelieved her and was trying to "trick" her. As
"Oprah" seemed unable to maintain her presentation, "Namoi"
vehemently reproached the consultant for doubting the account
offered by "Oprah," for whose past behaviors and current
interactions with the consultant she had consistently maintained
she had amnesia. At these angry moments, her behavior was
indistinguishable from "Oprah's." After another hour's
interviewing, during which the patient made several efforts to
convince the consultant that she had amnesia during the shop
lifting episode, she ceased to display the amnesiac behaviors.
When she was introduced to her public defender who told her
she would be arraigned the following day, she flew into a rage
and threatened that she would slash her wrists with the first
sharp object she could find. She also claimed that she was
hearing voices in her head telling her to kill herself. Based on
the vignette provided, please compose a well-written and
organized response to each of the following questions. When
writing your responses, please: •Use APA (6th edition) Style,
with 1-inch margins, double-spaced, 12 font, with a reference
list at the end. •Write clearly and concisely. •Cite appropriate,
and especially current, literature (empirical and/or theoretical).

Psychological Theory and Practice A.What assessments would
you conduct to enhance your understanding of the problems of
the person in the vignette and how would your choice of
assessment(s) inform your diagnostic formation and treatment
planning? Assessments may include structured or unstructured
interviews, valid and reliable assessment measures, and/or
formalized assessment procedures that may be conducted by
5. yourself or by someone else referred by you. B.Provide your
diagnostic impressions (based on the DSM-5) for this
individual. In narrative form, please describe how the individual
meets the diagnostic criteria for the disorder(s) chosen in
addition to the differential diagnostic thought process that you
used to reach your hypotheses. Be sure to include any additional
(missing) information that is needed to either rule out or
confirm your differential diagnoses impressions. Legal Theory
and Application A. Explain the background, current
presentation, and behavior of the person in the vignette utilizing
biological, learning, and social theories on offenders to support
your position. Do not simply restate the background information
from the vignette. Instead, provide a theoretically-based
discussion to understand the criminal behaviors of the person in
the vignette. B.Consider the type of crime in the vignette and
discuss how that type of crime generally impacts a victim of it.
Do not limit yourself to discussing just the victim in this
vignette. Instead obtain scholarly sources for information on
how this type of crime can affect any victim, their family
members, and other members of society. C.Describe the
psycholegal standards and/or definitions for each of the
following: competence to stand trial, duty to warn, and insanity.
Identify and describe one or more landmark case(s) for each
standard (at least three cases total). Describe the elements or
issues that a mental health professional usually focuses on when
assessing a person’s adjudicative competence, risk and insanity,
and any additional items that might be especially important to
focus on in the provided vignette. Assessment, Research and
Evaluation A.Describe tests or assessment procedures you
would employ to address the psycholegal issues of (competence
to stand trial, risk of dangerousness, and insanity). You may
refer to these from the Psychological Theory and Assessment
Section "A" if you already covered them there. Discuss what
the anticipated conclusions would be based upon information
provided in the vignette. B.Develop a research question and a
testable research hypothesis regarding offenders or the type of
6. crime that is discussed in the vignette (such as, addiction,
recidivism, criminal behavior, etc.). Explain the variables in
your question and the type of research study that could answer
your question as well as why that research would make a
contribution to the field of forensic psychology. Leadership,
Consultation, and Ethics A.What are the ethical and legal
dilemmas this vignette introduced? What would be your
immediate steps and why? Please be specific and make sure that
you describe your process of ethical decision making and the
solutions/consequences to which this process might lead. Your
discussion should be informed by the American Psychological
Association’s Ethics Code as well as the Specialty Guidelines
for Forensic Psychologists. Interpersonal Effectiveness A.What
diversity factors, cultural considerations, or other demographic
variables pertaining to the person in the vignette would you take
into account in rendering diagnoses, choosing assessment
measures, forming case conceptualizations, and designing the
treatment plan? Be sure to discuss cultural/diversity factors
that could apply even if they are not explicitly mentioned in the
vignette. B.Your writing, use of citations, ability to form a
logical argument, and proper APA Style, including the use of
paraphrasing, will be evaluated as a measure of your
interpersonal effectiveness. No response is required for "B".
