Cindy, 24, has come to see you, her therapist, because she is having trouble deciding what to do. She has had
a series of bad relationships and doesn't feel like she has it in her to continue trying to find a partner. Based on
what you know about Erikson, how would you help her?
For this scenarios, you will need to answer the following questions:
1. Identify the Erikson stage (based on age-e.g. “Trust vs. Mistrust").
2. Define stage "terms" (e.g., what does Erikson mean by "Trust" by “Mistrust"?)
3. What is important at that stage? (This suggests what you should ask the client about)
4. What is the central process? (This suggests how you might go about your intervention)
5. What is the prime adaptive ego quality? (This should be encouraged, so how would your intervention
encourage this quality to develop?)
6. What is the core pathology? (This should be avoided, so how would your intervention discourage this
quality?)
7. Using the information above, what information do you need to get from your client-i.e., what do you
need to ask them about?
8. Based on Erikson's theory and the information above, what do you hypothesize that the problem is?
9. Based on Erikson's theory and the information above, what intervention do you propose? Explain how
this intervention coincides with Erikson's theory.
