Case scenario for Gina – theoretical approach.
Topic: A Case for Gina
Firstly, when working with clients/students it is important that we as counselors are purposeful with our words, use of skills, use of techniques, and our exhibited behaviors. Secondly, the theory is what helps to guide how we conceptualize client situations and work with our clients and students. Each week, we will introduce you to a small handful of different theoretical approaches. For each weekly assignment (weeks 1-4) you will be provided a case scenario. You will also be offered the opportunity to choose which theoretical approach (covered in class that week) to apply to the case scenario. Also, make sure to fully respond to each question and to use the rubric to guide your writing (the rubric is used to determine your grade).
