Generate an Outline Exploring One Foundational Model.For this assignment, you are generating the outline for the paper that you will write next week. Thinking through this outline generates a collaborative process between you and your professor as you move into the Signature Assignment. Your professor can help you visualize the direction of your paper, and then provide feedback.
An outline is a framework for a paper and is an effective way to begin planning the main topics and subtopics that will be included in an assignment. An outline contains only the most important information in brief statements. Please check into writing resources or your professor if you struggle with creating an outline.
The first step is to decide on a classical model that you would like to learn more about.
I have chosen Cognitive-Behavioral Family Therapy.
Create an outline that highlights the points that you intend to bring to your paper next week. Additionally, include a listing of references (including the two or more supplemental references that you will use).
Length: 2-4 pages
References: Include a minimum of 5 scholarly resources.
I. Introduce the paper (overview of what you will address in the paper, which is to describe your chosen model).
II. Describe your chosen therapy model.
Be sure to thoroughly articulate the primary theorist(s) of your selected Classic Model, including a specific illustration of why this model can be considered among approaches based on systems-based theories.
Describe the role of the therapist, key assumptions, interventions, goals, and course (length) of treatment using information from multiple sources and in-text citations. This is one of the most important sections of your paper, so focus your energy here. This section may include some information from the articles you located in Week 10.
Offer a critique of your chosen model. Discuss any possible limitations from this model, how cultural competency and diversity is addressed in the model, and any shortcomings of the model based on the research articles you located in Week 10.
III. Develop a treatment plan to treat the family.
Create a brief case example. You can base your family system on a movie that you have seen, a family you know, your own family, or your imagination. Describe the family system, including important information about their context (this will include aspects of their culture, belief systems, etc.) and presenting problem(s). This section will be written up in a paragraph (around 400 words).
Present a brief general treatment plan that uses goals, tasks, and interventions that are theoretically consistent with the model you chose. Review the treatment plan materials from earlier in the course and format the treatment plan as you would during therapy (with appropriate labels/numbers for goals, etc.) rather than just writing in paragraph format.
IV. Conclusion- Summarize the main points of your paper.
Your outline should address all of the assignment requirements, exhibit evidence of concept knowledge, and demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the content presented in the course. The writing should integrate scholarly resources, reflect academic expectations and current APA standards
