Individual Case Study

Please make certain that your case study analysis is no longer than 600 words.

 

When you write a case study analysis, it is important to not summarize the case. Please resist this temptation. I would like you to address the following points in your case study analyses:

 

1) Please identify the central issue(s) or problem(s) in the case study;

2) Please explain the source(s) of the central issue(s) or problem(s) is/are.  Why is the situation the way it is? If possible, please describe the source of the central issue(s) in the case by using standard business terminology.

3) Please explain what the implications and/or ramifications of the situation are.

4) Please make a recommendation or endorsement for your company or protagonist(s) to follow. (It is essential that your recommendation be supported by your analysis in step #3).

Proposing A Counseling Or Psychotherapy Group

Assignment Instructions

Imagine you are working in a community agency and would like to offer a counseling or psychotherapy group. A survey of clients revealed that there is a community need to address the following group topics:

  • Traumatic loss and bereavement.
  • Management of anger and impulse issues.
  • At risk behaviors for youth.
  • Intimate partner violence.
  • Eating disorders.

Select one topic and focus on a specific population impacted. For example, you may identify age, gender, sexual orientation, or ethnicity that group members may have in common in addition to the focus of the group. As a first step to propose the group to your supervisor, you will analyze the current group literature to provide a rationale for offering either a counseling or psychotherapy group. Please note that a psychoeducational group does not meet the requirements for the assignments in this course.

We will assume that your supervisor is looking for you to carefully study what has already been written about similar groups before you develop any specific plans for the proposed group. Utilize the Unit 3 Assignment Paper Template for this assignment and review the scoring guide.

Locate peer-reviewed articles published within the past seven years from professional journals that present a range of group counseling approaches for your topic. Compare the sources based on the strength of the group leadership approach and specific counseling theories presented. Present a clear analysis of how specific ethical and diversity issues will be relevant to the proposed group citing the relevant ethical standards.

Submission Requirements

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • Written communication: Written communication must be grammatically correct and free of errors that detract from the overall message. Writing should be consistent with graduate level scholarship.
  • APA formatting: Title page, main body, and references should be formatted according to current APA style and formatting.
  • Number of resources: Minimum of six scholarly resources. Distinguished submissions typically exceed this minimum.
  • Length of paper: 57 typed, double-spaced pages. Abstract and Table of Contents are not necessary.
  • Font: Times New Roman, 12 point.

Ethical And Cultural Considerations In Groups

Ethical considerations are important to planning the structure of any group and will be a key component of the group proposal that will come together in our course assignments. The ethical issues that guide group formation and structure apply broadly to all groups in general, but may have more specific application depending upon the topic and population for the group. Use the example below to explore how ethical and cultural issues can be considered in the planning stages of a group.

Imagine you are a supervisor in a county mental health clinic serving a culturally diverse community. A supervisee proposes an outpatient group for children of parents going through divorce.

  • What cultural issues would be critical for the supervisee to consider when recruiting, screening, and planning interventions for the group?
  • What specific ethical standards take on heightened importance for this group?
  • What may happen to the group if your supervisee fails to take the issues you identified into consideration?
