[Week 8: Martinez Family]
General Background:
The Martinez family consists of Miguel, Jeannette, Gabby,
Tommy, and Christina
(the adopted daughter of Jeannette’s cousin).
The family’s ethnicity is Hispanic, and both Miguel and
Jeannette come from very
large extended families—many of whom live in the area.
They are Seventh-Day Adventists who are very involved in their
church; they
both hold leadership positions in the church and attend services
multiple times
each week.
Presenting Issues:
Gabby is now 19 years old and has come to see you. She is still
living in her
parents’ home, which she says is “generally ok as long as [she
does] what they
tell [her] to.”
Although she graduated from high school with fairly good
grades, Gabby did not
go to college. She said that she wasn’t sure at the time what she
wanted to do,
and her father told her “not to waste [his] money.”
© 2013 Laureate Education, Inc. 2
Since then, Gabby has had a series of low-paying jobs, from
which she is usually
fired for missing too much work. She says that if she found a
job she liked, she’d
probably take it more seriously, but so far that hasn’t happened.
Gabby also shares that she is getting a lot of pressure from her
parents to “find a
husband and settle down,” although Gabby thinks she is too
young for this.
Gabby is feeling anxious and lost and is looking to you for
guidance.
[Reeves Family]
General Background:
The Reeves family consists of Lucas, John, Justin, and Emme.
Lucas’ wife,
Anne, left him and the children shortly after Emme was born.
The family is Caucasian and of mixed European ethnic descent.
Their faith is Protestant, although Lucas notes that they do not
attend church
regularly.
Lucas also shares that the he has no family in the area to help
him with the
children, and he often feels overwhelmed.
Presenting Issues:
John is now 21 years old. He has come to see you because you
were so helpful
to him during his difficult early adolescence. Since then, John
has straightened
out, separated himself from negative influences in his life, and
finished high
school in the top 20% of his class.
John also took college courses while in high school, which
helped him finish
college with a history degree in only three years. After
graduating from college,
John returned to his father’s home. He has not yet found a job,
and as you speak
with him, you learn that he has not really been trying.
John states that employment is “overrated” and that he wants to
explore and
experience more of life before he “settles down into [his] dad’s
life of bills and
obligations.”
John shares that earning a degree only made him realize how
little he really
knows, and he feels ill-prepared for “real life.” He hopes that
his journey of
personal development will help him “find [his] true self” and
inspire him toward his
path in life.
© 2013 Laureate Education, Inc. 3
He has come to you looking for help with processing where he
is in life—and for
validation, since his father has called him a “bum.”
[Jeong Family]
General Background:
The Jeong family consists of Kimball (“Kim,” a physician),
Meg (a nurse), Steven,
Kelsey, and Joey.
The family is of Korean descent and describes themselves as
“very
Americanized.”
They are Christian Buddhists and embrace their faith strongly.
Both Kim’s and Meg’s extended families live within about an
hour of the Jeongs,
providing the family with both support and unsolicited advice.
Presenting Issues:
Kelsey is now grown up (26) and married to Jin (27). They met
in college in an
education program and are both high school teachers.
Kelsey has come to you for support and guidance as she copes
with the news
that she and Jin will not be able to have children. They are
devastated by this
news, and Kelsey feels like “a failure as a woman.”
She shares that she has always wanted to be a mother, which she
understands
was highly influenced by her own strong mother figure as well
as broader cultural
influences. She knows Jin loves her very much, but she fears
that he may leave
her because of this.
Kelsey wants to consider all of her options, including adoption,
but Jin has been
resistant. She is seeking help from you to try to figure out how
to handle her
situation and her husband.
[Crane Family]
General Background:
The Crane family consists of Carol, Hunter, and Olivia.
© 2013 Laureate Education, Inc. 4
Carol is a single mother living in the inner city under very poor
conditions.
Although she has a job, she barely makes ends meet and
receives federal
assistance for her children. She cannot afford good food, nor
can she afford to
live in a safer area. She currently lives in a subsidized housing
development.
The family is Caucasian, of European descent, and agnostic.
Presenting Issues:
It’s been many years since you’ve seen anyone in the Crane
family. You receive
a call from Carol to make an appointment for Olivia (now 19),
who is on a term
break from college.
Carol shares that Olivia has been having a very hard time
adjusting socially and
doesn’t have any friends. Carol is very worried, as Olivia has
seemed “more
depressed than usual.”
When Olivia comes for her appointment, you ask her how
college has been
going. She responds that it’s “just OK,” and that it isn’t what
she thought it would
be. Olivia tells you that everyone she meets is a snob, and all
anyone cares
about is partying.
When you ask if she has made any friends, Olivia responds that
she “[doesn’t]
want to be friends with those people,” adding that she doesn’t
need friends to be
happy.
You shift gears and ask about her classes. Olivia responds that
she “drew the
hardest professors possible” from the random class assignments
and snorts with
disgust. She adds that “nothing is good enough for them,” and
she is struggling
academically (however, she does admit to having a 3.0+ GPA).
Before you can shift again, Olivia says, “And don’t even bother
to ask about
boys. After what my mother went through with my a-hole of a
father, I’m not
planning on ever being tied down…to anyone.”
[Anderson Family]
General Background:
The Anderson family consists of grandparents Ernie and
Audrey, Jamal
(diagnosed with Asperger’s disorder), Marcus, and Artesia.
Ernie and Audrey gained custody of their three grandchildren
after their daughter
and her husband were killed in a car accident. Their daughter
and her husband—
the parents of the children—had been living with them prior to
the accident, as
© 2013 Laureate Education, Inc. 5
they had fallen on hard times after both parents lost their jobs
and subsequently
had to give up their home.
The family is African American, Southern Baptist, and very
involved in their
church.
Presenting Issues:
Jamal (now 23) has come to see you because “[his]
grandmother said [he]
should.”
Jamal has had some difficulty finding and keeping a job since
graduating from
college at the top of his class with a degree in computer science.
He shares that
he has interviewed at quite a few companies but never seems to
make it past the
human resources interview. His grandmother tried to “coach”
him to improve his
interviewing skills, but he says that what she wants him to say
is “stupid” and
doesn’t fit who he is.
Jamal tells you that he knows he is different from many people,
but he always
found his place in college and doesn’t understand why the
“computer geeks in
the real world” won’t hire him. He adds that he is very honest
about his “disability”
and always tells prospective employers that he has Asperger’s
disorder during
interviews.
Jamal adds that the only reason he can come up with for not
getting hired
somewhere is because he’s black and all the decision-makers
are “old-school
white boys.”
