Psychosocial Stage Of Development

Prepare a 3-4 page APA paper in which you analyze your current psychosocial stage of development.

Include the following items:

 

Identify your present Eriksonian psychosocial stage of development.

 

 

Your selected stage of development may not correlate with your current age.

 

Explain how your current psychosocial stage of development (per Erikson) influences your behavior and relationships.

 

Explain both the positive and negative outcomes from the influence of your psychosocial stage of development.

 

 

Evaluate how other developmental issues have influenced your personality.

Credentialing And Licensure

Use apa format and dialogue about the difference between national credentials and state licensure. This might help you get a head start on the assignment/paper where you review the ACA website and the LPC process. Feel free to start with the textbook, the ACA website or the Secretary of State (Georgia) website to explore the differences in state licensure and national certifications/credentials. This assignment should take approximately 60 minutes to investigate and discuss on this thread.
