Analyzing Erikson's Theories

According to Erikson he believed that the ego develops as it successfully resolves crises. It was over time where a client informed to me how he is continually facing an issue, something that had happened to him when he was around seven or eight. He had expressed that it was something that he did not want to revisit but it left a big scar on his self-esteem. He expressed that as time went on the memory of what had happened faded but eventually started remembering it all. He was opened with saying that it was his relative that had sexually assaulted him, and that it was something that he does not think he could ever get over by himself. He said he has shared this with a couple of his close female friends but not with any of his male friends. He told his mom a year ago but nothing became of it, but he said he was not asking for his mom to do anything with the information other than to just listen. The client said growing up as Christian he was always taught that God would take care of him and look after him but when this happened he felt belittled and as if God had stopped caring for him.
A year after that he was into stealing anything that he wanted from anybody. He mentioned the time when him and a bunch of his friends stole a car and then drove it until the gas was finished. He shared another time when him and his friends was going to do a breaking and entering into someone’s house and when they were inside they found out it was a cops house, at that point they ran out quickly because they were afraid to find out what might happen if they took anything from him. He said him and his friends did not want no police to come and track them down based on the finger prints left in the police officers
