For this discussion, you will take on the role of a counselor with a bereaved client and create a script of a hypothetical counseling session. The script will be at least 20 responses, including 10 from the client and 10 from the counselor. Your responses as the counselor will include crisis intervention techniques. What factors would you attend to when assessing the situation and the client’s mental and emotional state? How would age be relevant in your assessment and intervention process? Who might you consult with regarding this situation? What might you do differently if the client was Chinese or from Puerto Rico? Consider playing up the potential risks and respond to those risks. See the cases provided below.
You will present the following:
A brief introduction to the client scenario.
The counseling session script. Ensure you do not use up your counseling script getting to know each other!
A discussion of the crisis interventions you applied in the session.
A discussion of how your client’s developmental life stage affected your application of your chosen approach.
A reflection of how you might respond to your selected client, including any multicultural considerations.
Case Study:
The Cortez Family: The husband dies while in his early 50s. The wife has one teenage daughter at home and one son in his first year of college. She seems to be functioning normally from outward appearances. The day after the funeral, she goes to her bridge club without noticeable grief.
