2 Week four Journal: Psychosocial development This week’s journal assignment focuses on changing or complementing my position on psychosocial development theories. This week’s subject involved complex information about psychosexual, emotional, personality, and moral development. However, this week’s materials enhanced my knowledge on different perspectives of life span development theories. This week’s materials provided me with more information concerning individuals’ development time frame which opened my perspectives on personal development. Different theorists expressed their perspectives concerning why, what, and how individuals develop through different stages of their life (Mossler & Ziegler,2016) . I believe lifespan development does not begin and end at one specific phase of lifespan development. I think Erikson’s perspective on lifespan development explains that individuals experience development as they grow during all stages of development (Avella, 2021). I have learned through personal experience that a person learns something new every day of their life which increases life span development. The three pieces of advice I would give to an acquaintance or client having difficulties. I would advise them everyone develops at different paces some faster or slower than others. However, rate of development does not make them different from anyone else instead it means my client may need specialized guidance to overcome challenges they may be facing. The 2 nd piece of advice involves providing my clients or acquaintance with resources such as occupational, development, or educational therapies to assist them in overcoming these barriers. The 3 rd piece of advice involves referring clients to therapists or counselors that specialize in occupational, educational, or development problems. The recommendations provided to my client ensures therapist or counselors specializes in development. The therapists or counselors help them to overcome obstacles to ensure clients
3 have the information needed to set goals to move forward and overcome barriers required to get past the obstacles. When clients have resources in place enables them to realize they have support teams and individuals needed to help them get through the obstacles.
