FINAL: A close look into the life of an Adolescent
The Final Paper should be 8-10 pages, with a minimum of 3 and references from the course readings and 7 references minumum. Adolescent development is a time of “storm and stress.” With that in mind, please discuss the protagonist of one of the following movies: “Real Women have curves,” “The Squid and the Whale” or “First Match” using a clinical and theoretical framework.
1. Conceptualize the problems keeping in mind the following areas of influence and impact on adolescent development: family, neighborhood, sexual orientation and/or gender identification, race/ethnicity, social media, substance use, sexuality, peer relationships and any other considerations you deem impactful.
2. If you were the youth’s school social worker, from a multidisciplinary framework discuss all the possible disciplines or professionals you would want to work with in order to effectively work with this youth.
3. Discuss possible countertransference issues if the protagonist was your client.
4. Discuss all protective and risk factors as well as any and all clinical interventions you would use if this protagonist was your client. For more information on Adolescents Life read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolescence
