Context:
Client came to sessions; referring by the class teacher , in regards of her son
Behavior in class. This problem was not a surprise to the mother claiming she
Can not handle’s his behavior at home as well. She loses control by shouting
and threatening to smack and punish.
Process
Contract and boundaries ,including confidentiality ,were presented and accepted.
We agreed to meet for 5 sessions and then review.
I listened carefully to her version of the story. I explored her background by asking direct questions about her family and her environment .
It seems that work was the paramount consideration due to dire need for income .
I also understood that from her words that shouting and threats were the norm when
Trying to control unruly behavior .
Reflection
I felt in this session that the client was more willing to cooperate. My thoughts were
To move to actually teach her new ways of behavior.
In further sessions, I spoke with the client about using unconditional positive regards with her son by letting her child know he is a good person even when he is misbehave .
That he is accepted and valued no matter what and how he behaved.
By doing so parents shows their love for their child regardless of how much he
Has misbehaved.
In further sessions we spoke about how to guide and support the child letting him
Feel secure in his own environment.
