Mental health professionals hold grand rounds events to maintain their current knowledge of health care practices and to consult with colleagues on particularly difficult cases. During these professional events, mental health professionals sometimes present a case and seek feedback from peers regarding conceptualization and treatment of a patient’s problems. This interactive assignment is an opportunity to simulate a grand rounds event.For your initial post in this forum, you will provide written feedback regarding your colleague’s presentation and questions. Your post must include the following:

Provide an evaluation of the degree to which the presenter followed the ethical standards outlined in Section 4 Links to an external site.of the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct: Including 2010 Amendments.   (https://www.apa.org/ethics/code/index)
Highlight the relevant information from the patient’s history you will use to inform your conceptualization of the patient’s problems and diagnosis.
Provide an evaluation of the patient’s symptoms and presenting problems within the context of a theoretical orientation that seems to be most appropriate for the situation. Be sure to indicate which theory you are using for your evaluation and provide a justification for your choice. (e.g., cognitive, behavioral, humanistic, biological, sociocultural, evolutionary, psychoanalytic, integrative, etc.). NOTE: Be clear that you are writing about theoretical orientations and using the theoretical orientations to explain the client’s symptoms and presenting problems. Do not use the theoretical orientations to discuss any therapy or treatment approaches. Your application of the theoretical orientations should answer the question: How did this client develop the symptoms and current presenting problems? For example, “Based on the cognitive perspective, how did this client develop the symptoms and current presenting problem?” “Based on the humanisitic perspective, how did this client develop the symptoms and current presenting problem?” Etc.
Provide a diagnosis for the patient based on the DSM-5. Be specific about the DSM-5 criteria required for the diagnosis and how the client meets those criteria.
Describe at least one evidence-based and one non-evidence-based treatment option for this diagnosis.
Pose appropriate questions that you would ask the client to help determine the most accurate diagnosis for this patient.

In New York City on July 13, 1977, more than 9 million people went without power for 25 hours after lightning struck power lines upstate. An ineffective hazard plan resulted in city-wide looting, millions of dollars in destroyed businesses due to arsons, and over 3,700 arrests. Using the South University Online Library, research this event and learn about the shortcomings in the response to the crisis. Access a copy of your local community’s hazard plan from your local office of emergency management website. In most cases, this function is handled by the county government. If your particular county does not make such a plan available, locate one from a nearby county. Use it as a guide to help you create a hazard plan to address a blackout incident in your city today. Include the following in your plan: Determine the technical hazards that are covered in the plan. Describe the measures you would take to address a city-wide blackout and other potential technical hazards.

  Hector is a 35-year-old Hispanic male. Hector was seriously injured in an auto accident 5 months ago. He spent 4 months in the hospital. One leg and hip suffered permanent damage. He will probably always need a cane and walk with a limp. He also has limited mobility in his right arm and shoulder and cannot lift anything heavy. Hector grew up in a family with a construction business. He has been working in construction since high school. Social work at the rehab hospital referred Hector to counseling because he is not adjusting well to his injuries. He is very depressed and angry because he cannot continue to work in his chosen occupation. Hector says, “What use am I now? I am the man in the family. I should be strong. I need to support the family. I don’t want my wife to work. I don’t know what I am going to do to make a living.” What are some of primary issues that Hector is addressing? What are some of Hector’s feelings? What are Hector’s behaviors and how are these impacting his adjustment? How might Hector’s cultural heritage be impacting his adjustment to his injury?

What are Hector’s behaviors and how are these impacting his adjustment?
How might Hector’s cultural heritage be impacting his adjustment to his injury?
Hector still experiences severe pain in his shoulder and his leg. He spends a lot of time watching TV and drinking. At this point, he is not looking for work. His family has reached out to him but he avoids interaction with his siblings and his parents because they remind him of what he no longer can do. He feels shame when he is around family members because of his disability. His relationship with his wife is tense because he is often angry and withdrawn.
You are meeting with Hector for the first time and want to get the story.
As we meet with a new client we develop some hypotheses to explore, as well as listening to what the client says about himself.

What are Hector’s behaviors and how are these impacting his adjustment?
How might Hector’s cultural heritage be impacting his adjustment to his injury?
What are some beliefs that may be impacting Hector’s adjustment?
How might Hector’s family background be impacting his adjustment?
What might be some issues that will need to be addressed in counseling?
What are the stages of change the counselor will help Hector through? Provide a brief definition of each stage.
What steps can a counselor take to help Hector explore his problems?
Consider the following counselor skills: eye contact, closed and open-ended questions, paraphrasing and summarizing, reflection, body language, tone, listening, empathy, genuineness, unconditional positive regard, interpretation, tracking, reflecting emotion, active presence, structuring sessions, encouragement, questioning and clarifying, counselor self-awareness, tolerating intensity, validating, challenging, multicultural awareness/acceptance, probing and questioning, posture. Pick one skill and discuss how a counselor should use this in their sessions with Hector.

Include at three scholarly references in your paper. At least two resources should identify issues that need to be addressed when you are working with someone who is being rehabilitated from a serious injury.
