• Chapter 6, “Planning the Group,” pages 160–195.

Library Media

• Group counseling with inmates: San Quentin prison [Video]. (2017). Microtraining Associates.

Please answer the following questions:

1.Imagine you’re telling your friend or family member about this class. What do you feel like is the reading or idea that had the biggest impact on you? Explain that reading/idea as if you’re talking to your friend, and why you feel it is important/challenging/meaningful. 

2. Explain what you think a sexually liberated future looks like, using at least 1 of the readings from this week (core or additional). How is this vision for the future different than the present? What kinds of change need to happen to get there?

When you answer what kind of change needs to happen, please go beyond answers like, “people need to be more accepting/have more open minds.” While true, how do we get there? What structural and interpersonal actions need to be taken to (1) get people to that acceptance and (2) remove structural barriers like racism, patriarchy, ableism, and so on that stifle sexual revolution?

Cultural and Developmental Implications for Survivors

When working with any client, you must consider the impact of human development and culture. This is especially true when working with survivors of critical incidents. A 4-year-old child’s cognitive processing is different from that of a 35-year-old adult. Thus, you must be familiar with developmental stages, specifically those that incorporate cognitive and emotional understanding, when working with survivors of critical incidents. The cultural context of survivors also has an impact on their responses to critical incidents. For example, Haiti is an impoverished country with limited resources. The earthquake in 2010 devastated this country, the extent of which was at least partially the result of culturally relevant factors. The systems to filter and purify water in this country are not easily reconstructed, resources to rebuild houses and buildings are not immediately available, and food sources that are destroyed from an earthquake are not easily replenished. In an environment where there are more financial and systemic resources, the experience of an earthquake might not have such a significant impact on the continued health of the survivors.

For this Discussion, select a critical incident that would require a professional response for survivors and think about a culture in which this critical incident might occur. Consider the different stages of development of potential clients from the following: 6-year-old child, 14-year-old adolescent, 26-year-old young adult, and 50-year-old older adult. Think about how you would respond differently to each of your clients depending on their stage of development when experiencing the event or situation you selected.

By Day 4

Post by Day 4 a brief description of the critical incident you selected and the culture in which it might occur. Then, briefly describe your “clients” in terms of their stages of development. Next, explain how the developmental stage may influence the needs of your clients. Be specific and provide examples to illustrate. Identify any ecological factors that may influence survivors of the critical incident. Finally, explain how intervention with this critical incident might be different if the client(s) was/were of a different culture.
