QUESTION PRESENTED 1. Under Alabama’s burglary statute, does a former occupant of an apartment who partially moved out four to five days before committing a felony in the apartment and who has a estranged relationship with the occupant have an absolute right to enter? BRIEF ANSWER 1. Probably not. A person has an absolute right to enter as long as he remains an occupant of the apartment, ownership is irrelevant, and an estranged marital relationship is not sufficient.
Phase One (Sessions 1 through 3) • The session 1 and 2 consists of the assessment of the client’s clinical problems and background information. Questions relate to her clinical problems, including (a) the nature of her problems (depression and difficulty with making decisions), (b) reason of seeking psychotherapy, and (c) previous attempts to deal with the problems. For the background information, the client’s histories are assessed in the areas of intimate/family relationship, educational/vocational activities, past history of psychological treatment, and physical condition. Session 3 primarily consists on the further functional assessment around her coping skills (e.g., avoidance) in the areas of interpersonal relationships. Phase Two

Mr. Thelaw’s conduct would likely be considered extreme and outrageous when he manipulated Ms. Smartpants emotions in front of the class. Courts have reasoned that a defendant cannot deliberately attempt to manipulate the emotions of a plaintiff, for a perceived advantage over a plaintiff who is susceptible to emotional distress.

I used open-ended questions to extract solutions and answers to his questions and asked him to choose what would be the course of action he wanted to follow. SMART goal setting was also part of the practice and helped to determine the amount of time the resident practiced before making real calls. My personal goal of becoming comfortable with silence was achieved through “sharing space” with the residents and following their cues as to whether or not they wanted to talk.
When these concepts are successfully completed, a professional researched argument is the
Other strategy may begin a relationship with a client knowing that some degree of intervention will be required on a long-term, open-ended basis. Intervention may be needed due to the physical, mental, or emotional condition of the client or may be related to the client’s circumstances such as poverty, abusive relationships, or capacity. An example would be case management services offered to a person who is diagnosed with AIDS. The client may function quite independently except at various crisis points during which the case manager may need to provide fairly intensive
When one thinks of topics of conversation, abortion often finds itself in the “DO NOT DISCUSS” category. It tends to be a hypersensitive subject for most everyone; so when it is mentioned, people do not forget what is stated or who declared it. Most often, people associate abortion with healthcare clinics similar to those like Planned Parenthood (PP). People such as Robert Dear, a recent shooter who opened fire in a Planned Parenthood clinic, believe abortion is the only service they provide. When in reality they devote as little as 3% of their services to abortion.
The theory that I used was motivational interviewing to try and motivate Rachel to try to eat healthily and exercise because her life depends on it. I started off the session by asking Rachel what brings her into therapy. I then asked Rachel for permission to talk about her diagnosis. The interventions I used were reflective listening, the use a scale to determine how confident she was in her willingness to change and goal setting. I also used open-ended questions and summarized our session at the end to gain clarification and to wrap things up with the client.
Introduction Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, person-centred form of communication which focuses on the language of change. ‘It is designed to strengthen personal motivation for and commitment to a specific goal by eliciting and exploring the person’s own reasons for change within an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion’ (Miller et al., 2013, p.29). The technique of motivational interviewing was developed by two psychologists, Bill Miller and Steve Rollnick. Motivational interviewing is therapeutic to patients as it is based on a partnership, rather than a nurse-patient relationship (Heckman et al., 2010). There are four processes of motivational interviewing; engaging, focusing, evoking and planning.
Putting the client as the expert, understanding her story instead of attempting to judge it, in the therapist’s point of view. The therapist must in any point display with utmost care, interest, respectful curiosity, openness, empathy, and fascination. Once this collaborative relationship has been established, the counsellor and the client can move forward and work on how to improve the outcomes of the
