Exam Content Question As a clinician, it is important for you to be able to apply knowledge regarding various client presentations to your appraisal of mental disorders. You need to conceptualize these through both clinical and sociocultural perspectives. In this assignment, you will demonstrate this ability by evaluating a case study addressing cognitive behavioral therapy for a refugee mother who suffers from depression and anxiety. Review the following case study: *attached Faber, J., & Lee, E. (2020). Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for a Refugee Mother with Depression and Anxiety. Clinical Case Studies, 19(4), 239–257. Assume you are an intern at a behavioral health clinic that addresses concerns of immigrants and refugees who have crossed borders and cultures to live in the United States. You have been asked to prepare a summary of how you would assist the client in this case with her depression and anxiety issues. Your supervisor wants you to summarize the situation in this case, since next week she would like you to begin assisting with actual client summaries. You need to demonstrate your knowledge of both anxiety and depression as well as clinical and sociocultural perspectives, which are applicable to all of the clients at the behavioral health clinic. Write a 1,050 to 1,400-word analysis of the case from a sociocultural perspective. Include each of the following in your analysis: Appraise the sociocultural factors contributing to this client’s depression and anxiety. Discuss how the therapist in the case study addressed these sociocultural factors throughout the course of therapy. Evaluate how the therapist applies clinical concepts, such as cognitive errors and cognitive restructuring, as treatment tools, without imposing their own sociocultural values or beliefs on the client. What do you believe were the contributory factors to the successful outcomes of this clinical case? Cite at least 1 peer-reviewed or similar reference to support your assignment.
