Living With A Disability

Living With a Disability

When Shelly saw Ms. Jones in a wheelchair, she felt sorry for her. She said a little prayer of thanks that she could walk and move freely without any hindrance. However, feeling badly for a person and actually sitting in the wheelchair for another vantage point is very different.

Imagine that you suffered an accident six months ago. The accident left you partially paralyzed from the waist down. You are currently seeking counseling from a professional specializing in working with individuals who have disabilities. It has been a difficult six months. Your central concerns relate to the emotional and physical adjustments you must now make in relation to your family, job, and future plans. You are permanently in a wheelchair and have limited use of your legs but full use of your arms and upper body.

  • Identify three major issues that you think you would need to work through in therapy. Explain what aspect of each issue is problematic for you.
  • Explain how your views on intimacy, usefulness, and security will change for you to make the necessary adjustments for living with the disability.
  • How well do you think you would cope with this situation if you faced something similar in real life?

. Your response should be at least two pages long. All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.

A brief discription of Maritza programs is one that works with women who are reccently released from prison. She is helping with parenting skills and also the stuff that the assignment talks about.

Assignment One

For this Assignment, you will write an essay as if you were Maritza, outlining a plan to work with one client.

This cumulative assignment allows you to consider everything you have learned over the past 5 weeks in an attempt to change a behavior of your own. This overall process is similar to what a board-certified behavior analyst would compete with a new client.

Refer to the approved behavior you would like to change, based on your submission to your instructor in Week 3.

Track baseline data over a 3-day period, using the Baseline Data Worksheet.

Write a 1,400- to 1,750-word paper that outlines an intervention plan for changing that behavior, in which you discuss the following:

Describe the target behavior.

Outline the dimensions of measurement/baseline measurement.

Describe the function of the baseline behavior.

Outline the goals of the behavioral change.

Propose a behavior intervention plan based on goals.

Provide a minimum of 2 antecedent changes.

Provide 4 to 5 consequence modifications. Choose consequences based on at least four of the following: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, negative punishment, positive punishment, and extinction.

Describe any potential barriers to treatment, as well as how you would overcome these barriers.

Describe the expected outcome if the behavior intervention plan was implemented and followed.

Format your paper according to APA guidelines.

Submit your Baseline Data Worksheet along with your paper.

Format your presentation and reference page consistent with APA guidelines. This should not be direct quotes but paraphrased and cited with references. It should be spell checked, grammar checked, and plagiarism checked.
