Sometimes clients come into the counseling session with an immediate crisis. They need an immediate solution to a problem. Counseling in these situations needs to be focused and goal oriented.

Jamila has been working with her counselor on learning to better manage her 9-year-old son. Last night, her son was hit by a car and is in the hospital. This has created a number of problems:

1. She has to      arrange childcare for her daughter so she can stay with her son in the      hospital.
2. He will need      some special care when he gets home because he will be in a wheelchair.
3. She is fearful      that she will lose her job as a teacher’s aide in the local public      school.

Write a 500-750-word paper addressing the following:

1. How would you      prioritize Jamila’s concerns in the counseling session? What would you      address first?
2. What steps would      you take in this session to make sure that Jamila has the resources she      needs right now?
3. How would you      help Jamila develop a plan to manage the current crisis?

Include at least three scholarly references in your paper.
