Question

Sonia is 9 years old, and she reports feeling lonely all the time. She seems to be isolated from her peers and reports feeling different from everyone around her. She says she does not like the feeling of being vulnerable and has a hard time opening up to others. She reports hating school and only wants to stay at home with her mother. She cries every morning when her mother gets her ready for school. She will also cry each time the teacher indicates that the next upcoming subject is math. Sonia's parents are concerned for their daughter and are unable to ask for assistance because of a language barrier. Based on the scenario above, answer the following questions. Identify the challenges that the student, family, or individual client may be experiencing based on your specialization. Identify any psychosocial conflicts that may be present, and the transitions related to early school age or middle childhood that may be considered. Choose one theory of personality development and explain how that theory helps you understand this student's behavior. Describe specific ways of helping the student, family, or individual client from your professional perspective. My area of specialization is mental health counseling.
