Assignment 2 instruction Summary Value: 20% of the final grade. Due Date: on or before 11:55 p.m. AT on Sunday of Unit 4. Learning Objectives Critically evaluate a case study from a psychodynamic or humanistic theoretical perspective, evidencing an understanding of at least two interventions associated with the theory. The case study is to be chosen from the MACP Skills Learning Lab, Module 12, Case Study Central. Develop an understanding of the elements of a case conceptualization. Evidence understanding of the strengths and limitations of the theoretical perspective from a multicultural perspective. Reflect upon how your chosen theoretical perspective aligns with your personal beliefs about how emotional difficulties develop and what fosters therapeutic change. Instructions Briefly describe the client case and presenting problem in concise clinical terminology (do not restate the case study word for word – this is a summarized presentation of the client) Present and apply theoretical assumptions, principles, and foundations of the selected theory to develop the case conceptualization. A case conceptualization, which is informed by the therapy theoretical orientation, includes what has contributed to a client’s symptoms, problems in living, maladaptive relational interactions, and what appears to maintain them despite the person’s best efforts to move beyond them. In their book on case conceptualization—Len Sperry. Jon Sperry. Series: Core Competencies in Psychotherapy. Second edition. New York, N.Y. Routledge, 2020 (available in the library), outline elements of a case conceptualization, including predisposition, protective factors, and perpetuants. (pp.41-42). Evaluate at least 2 interventions or techniques associated with this theory that could be appropriately applied to the client case. Compose a short example of how these interventions could be applied in session. An example of an intervention, from a relational cyclical patterns approach (CCRT) would be assisting the client to identify problematic themes and patterns in interpersonal interactions across settings. Another would be helping to identify the wishes, needs and intentions they have in interactions with others. Report possible limitations of using this theory from a multicultural perspective. Appraise your personal alignment with the selected theory (i.e., how do you align with the theory’s assumptions, principles, or foundational beliefs?). Students can use the first- person writing style in this section.
Structure Required components: Title page, and Reference page. Length of Assignment: The text body of paper (i.e., not including references, title page or abstract) should consist of approximately 2000 words, (i.e., __(page range)___ double- spaced typed pages, Times New Roman font size: 12). Format: Please, format your assignment in Word (files with extension .doc or .docx), or Rich Text Format (files with extension .rtf). References: Minimum 5 peer-reviewed journal articles. At least 3 of these articles need to have been published in the last 5-7 years. Seminar works can be used.
