PLEASE REFER TO THIS CASE STUDY:
“Clinical Mental Health:
CASE HISTORY AND SYMPTOMATOLOGY
Laurie is a 13-year-old Puerto Rican female who was referred to the outpatient mental health clinic by Janie Robertson, FNP, who is the nurse practitioner who sees Laurie for regular medical concerns. The outpatient clinic is located in a mid-western state and city where the demographic makeup is as follows: White (63%), Black (14%), Asian (7%), Pacific Islander (3%), and Hispanic/Latino (13%).
The referral form indicated Lauries primary reason for referral was her scoring an 18 on the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) given to her during her routine appointment with the nurse practitioner. The case manager who gathered collateral information about Laurie from the mother noted that Laurie lives with both her parents and a younger brother, but that Lauries parents have experienced significant marital problems, have been separated several times, and are now starting divorce proceedings. Lauries mother reported having a history of psychiatric treatment for depression and anxiety and indicated that the clients father suffered from bipolar disorder and had been receiving psychiatric treatment, having been hospitalized on multiple occasions during previous years for non-compliance with his medication, resulting in psychotic episodes and violence.
Laurie and her mother arrived for the intake appointment 15 minutes late, stating they had difficulty obtaining transportation because the father used their only vehicle to go to work. Lauries paperwork indicated Medicaid as her primary insurance. During the intake appointment, Laurie expressed the following symptoms: frequent sadness and crying, increased appetite and overeating, guilt, low self-concept, anxiety, irritability, insomnia, hopelessness, and difficulty concentrating. In addition, she presented with difficulties in her interpersonal relationships, persistent negative thoughts about her appearance and scholastic abilities, as well as guilt regarding her parents’ marital problems.
Laurie also disclosed she has a history of self-harming by cutting her upper thigh and stated the last instance was 2 days ago because she was feeling overwhelmed about school. Laurie pleaded with the counselor not to mention this to her mother because Laurie didnt want to be sent to the crazy hospital like her father had been before.
Laurie was failing several classes in school, and her family was in the process of looking for a new school due to her failing grades and difficulties getting along with her classmates.
Lauries medical history revealed that she suffered from asthma, used eyeglasses, and was overweight. Laurie’s mother reported that Laurie had been previously diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) 2 years ago, had seen a counselor previously, and is currently prescribed antidepressants by the primary care provider in their hometown.”
Identify the Ethical Dilemma: Before a counselor can consider how state laws, statutes, or district policies may influence an approach, the counselor must first identify the issue and consider any relevant ethical concerns. (MY STATE IN NEW YORK)
Describe all ethical dilemma(s) presented in the case.
Identify unavailable facts relative to the ethical dilemma(s).
State Laws and Regulations: Earlier in this course, you identified the state laws and regulations relating to the practice of counseling for your specialization. (ADDICTION STUDIES)
Describe at least two state legal standards that help guide counselors to establish ethical relationships with clients or students through two specific requirements (for example, informed consent, managing boundaries, payment for services).
Include any additional state (NEW YORK PLEASE) statutes or local district policies that guide counselors (you may include a link to the statutes or policies).
Reflect on the impact state laws have on the counseling relationship.
Diverse Populations: Ethical issues are an integral part of counseling diverse clients, as counselors must uphold ethical standards while being sensitive to cultural and individual differences. Here are some ethical issues that may arise when counseling diverse clients: Cultural competence, informed consent, confidentiality, dual relationships, boundaries, values, beliefs, and multicultural competence.
Describe the ethical responsibilities when counseling diverse populations.
For example, in the sessions the client discloses personal beliefs that are opposed to the personal beliefs and/or values you hold. Ethical counselors will recognize the need for additional supervision to ensure that they are not trying to push personal values and beliefs onto their clients.
Explain how ethical responsibilities affect the counseling relationship in a way that is well supported by the literature.
Ethical Codes and Standards: The purpose of ethical codes is to uphold the integrity of the counseling profession, advance the welfare of clients, and direct ethical decision-making in our practice.
Describe three specific ethical codes/standards that would guide you in managing the relationship in the ethical dilemma.
Explain how these codes/standards could be applied to mitigate the ethical dilemma.
Interdisciplinary Team: You want to consider the role that interdisciplinary teams may play in counseling relationships. The term “interdisciplinary team” is used to represent any internal/external stakeholders, educational system, legal system, or emergency management teams.
Articulate strategies for interfacing ethically with the interdisciplinary team involved in a case.
Explain the impact this interaction might have on the counseling relationship.

Discuss a real-life example in which a social conflict followed Coser’s theory. According to Coser’s (and Simmel’s) insights, what function(s) did this conflict fulfill? In other words, why was it good for society – or at least some people within society?
“Conflict theory” derives from the critical work of Karl Marx on economic inequality under capitalism; Coser’s analysis comes from structural-functionalism. How might social conflict be understood using symbolic interactionism? Come up with and discuss an application of this theory to the question of conflict.

A former Kremlin advisor said Russia sees the crisis as a chance for Moscow to try to grow its clout in the Middle East by casting itself as a potential peacemaker with links to all sides. Russia may believe that it can profit from the Israel-Hamas conflict. How so?
MATHIAS HAMMER: Russia has notably not condemned Hamas’s attacks on Oct. 7 as terrorism. Instead, Russian officials have called for both sides to put down arms and reaffirmed its support for a Palestinian state. At the United Nations Security Council, a Russian resolution that called for a ceasefire and the release of all hostages was voted down as it failed to condemn Hamas.
ANDREW OSBORN: Russia’s ties with Israel, traditionally close and pragmatic, have suffered. Moscow’s reception of a Hamas delegation less than two weeks after the Oct. 7 massacre angered Israel, prompting it to summon Russia’s ambassador, Anatoly Viktorov, for sending “a message legitimizing terrorism.”

Does a man who never stepped on what would become the United States deserve a federal holiday? What do you think of the argument for changing the name and focus of the holiday from Columbus to ?Indigenous Peoples Day?? Does changing the holiday dishonor the heritage of Italian-Americans, a group that has also faced discrimination? Or does changing the name serve to recognize and affirm the overlooked history and contributions of Native Americans? SEE UPLOADED FILE FOR MORE DETAILS.
This week we will see the techniques used to structure the data requirements for an information system application as the textbook and lecture notes emphasizes entity-relationship (E-R) diagramming, the most common notation used by practicing systems and data analysts. You will see how E-R diagramming is used along with process and logic modeling techniques to develop a thorough, unambiguous description of system requirements. In addition to the standard constructs of the E-R model (entities, attributes, and relationships), the data-oriented questions that should be raised during requirements determination will be discussed in our online discussions. In essence, the Conceptual Modeling process looks at how the data is structured and what the characteristics of the data are. What characteristics of data are represented in an E-R diagram?

When your diet plan meets the above objectives, screenshot your analysis or print it to a pdf. You must submit this in the assignment area. Also, I need you to write a report, so my coaches will know what changes you made to their athlete’s diet. Use Word to write your report. It should include the following: List of meal or snack time and foods to be eaten at that time. (Be sure to space out your food selections, so they meet the guidelines you learned in class.) Time when the athlete is working out What foods did you add to their diet? What foods did you remove from their diet? What did you do about their fluid intake?
Athletic Director: Wow! Our teams did terrific last week! I know much of their success can be attributed to your food recommendations! Thanks so much! Now we need to work on modifying their daily food intake, so they are ready every day to do their best at practice and competitions. What changes should they make to their diet? Remember, you analyzed their current diet for Assignment 1. This week, let’s improve that diet. I’ll let each coach explain what they need.
Coach Speedy: My runners are not consistently ready to meet the challenge of every practice and competition. I think they need to eat the right balance of the five foods groups daily, and those foods need to be spaced appropriately before, and after practice, so they come to practice and competitions ready to go. We practice at four in the afternoon for 1 1/2 hours. The conference championship is in two weeks.
Coach Power: We have our final competition in four weeks. I need to push my lifters without overdoing it. What changes do they need to make to their diet? We practice for 1 ½ hour every morning starting at 7 am.
Coach Combo: We play every week, and my team is getting beat up and worn down. Good news! We have made it to the conference playoff. The team is pumped up, but we will be playing a tough team. If we win this, we can go to a bowl game. We have two weeks to replenish our body and get ready for the big game. I’m going to pull out all the stops. What should we eat? We lift weights at 6 am and then practice on the field every afternoon at 3 pm for 2 hours.
Athletic Director: Okay, now you have heard from the coaches. Time to start making your recommendations. I know this will help each of the teams prepare for their final competitions. For this assignment, you will modify one of the team’s diets from Assignment 1. If your name last name starts with the A-H, then you will work with Coach Combo and make recommendations for his football team. If your last name begins with I-P, then you will evaluate a sample diet from Coach Speedy’s Cross Country team. Finally, if your last name starts with the letter Q through Z, you will assist Coach Power and his weight lifters.
You need to modify your team’s diet, so it meets the following recommendations. Use Cronometer to make the modifications. You can use the same profile you used for the first assignment, just add new days. Also, you will be adding and deleting foods to the diet. Each diet consists of three days and the average for the three days should meet the following recommendations.
Calorie intake is within 250 calories of the calorie level recommended by the diet analysis program. Be sure you selected the appropriate activity.
All nutrients are >100% (Please note this is >100% and not equal to 100%). Be sure not to exceed the upper limit for a nutrient.
The source of calories from carbohydrates is >55%, and the source of calories from fat is <25%.
For the team you are helping, enter the following profile information into the Cronometer diet analysis program.
Coach Speedy and her cross country team: Plan between 2500-3000 kcal/day for a female athlete, 20 yrs old, 5 feet 5 inches tall, 135 lbs, maintain current weight, the activity level is active
Coach Power and his weight lifting team: Plan between 3500-4000 kcal/day for a male athlete, 21 yrs old, 6 feet tall, 180 lbs, maintain current weight, the activity level is active
Coach Combo: Plan between 3500-4000 kcal/day for a male athlete, 19 yrs old, 6 feet tall, 200 lbs, maintain current weight, the activity level is active
In this class, you learned the time you eat relative to working out is just as important as the foods you eat. When should the athlete eat the foods you recommend? How many hours before and after practice? Are there certain types of foods they should eat? What about fluid intake? Be sure to space out your food selections, so they meet the guidelines you learned in class.
Remember, variety and moderation are the keys to a healthy, well-balanced diet so the same foods should not be eaten every day. Make sure your diet changes are different every day.
When your diet plan meets the above objectives, screenshot your analysis or print it to a pdf. You must submit this in the assignment area. Also, I need you to write a report, so my coaches will know what changes you made to their athlete’s diet. Use Word to write your report. It should include the following:
List of meal or snack time and foods to be eaten at that time. (Be sure to space out your food selections, so they meet the guidelines you learned in class.)
