This assignment is to write a 250-300 word paper. If you need more words – that is fine.
The paper should include the following:
Name
Age
Gender** female
Race** biracial (caucasian and African American)
Ethnicity
Religion
Socioeconomic status/career/job
Support system
Family dynamics
What led you to the mental health treatment group (brief background/history of the character’s issues)
The evaluation of the paper will be based on how well the person described can be pictured by the reader.
Include content related
to diversity, discrimination, and/or oppression.
You will create the character/client and describe that person in the paper. You should include the client’s presenting problem, target behaviors (things that they want to reduce to improve their life during the group), life circumstances and history, and personal characteristics. Include a group treatment interfering behavior that you can do when asked. For example, excessively talk, be excessively quiet, interrupt other people, over-share information, refuse to participate, not complete your homework, and/or not attend regularly.
I have attached an example paper.
