crisis counseling | Psychology homework help

Sometimes clients come into the counseling session with an immediate   crisis. They need an immediate solution to a problem. Counseling in   these situations needs to be focused and goal oriented. 

Jamila has been working with her counselor on learning to better   manage her 9-year-old son. Last night, her son was hit by a car   and is in the hospital. This has created a number of problems:

1. She has to arrange childcare for her daughter so she can stay     with her son in the hospital. 
2. He will need some     special care when he gets home because he will be in a   wheelchair.
3. She is fearful that she will lose her job as a     teacher’s aide in the local public school. 

Write a 500-750-word paper addressing the following:

1. How would you prioritize Jamila’s concerns in the     counseling session? What would you address first?
2. What     steps would you take in this session to make sure that Jamila has     the resources she needs right now?
3. How would you help     Jamila develop a plan to manage the current crisis? 

Include at least three scholarly references in your paper.
