This assignment involves writing an introduction and creating four detailed case studies that apply Erikson's and Piaget's developmental stages for counseling clients in regard to differentiated interventions. A comprehensive summary will compare the two theories, followed by a discussion about promoting resilience and optimal development. A conclusion will highlight the main ideas. Refer to the template for this assignment.Part 1: IntroductionIn 75-100 words, provide an insight into the assignment.Part 2: Case StudiesFrom the perspective of your specific discipline, School Counseling (SC), choose two of Erikson's psychosocial and learning theory (3-8 years old) stages and two of Piaget's cognitive theory of learning and development (3-8years old) stages. You are going to create a scenario and speak to how familyaddiction may present developmentally in a child- such as when there has been substance abuse- how might that impact a child's development (it may have a direct physical effect such as fetal alcohol syndrome) or indirectly ( such as when a family system is disjointed because of substance abuse- causing risk behaviors that would become problematic in Erikson's theory of development or Piaget's. This assignment will allow you to gain an understanding of different strategies and interventions that can be utilized based on the abilities of the counselor and client. Erikson’s psychosocial theory and Piaget’s cognitive theory focus on development and learning at different stages of life.While creating the four detailed case studies, label each of the four case studies with the theorist and stages relevant to it. Each case study should bea minimum of 250 words. For each of the four case studies include the following:Provide a description of the stage within the chosen learning theory, integrating theories and etiology of addictions and addictive behaviors,and develop a case study of a client within this stage, focusing on potential addictive behaviors.
