    I conducted an in person interview at Deaconess Cross Pointe, 7200 East Indiana Street; Evansville, Indiana 47715. I interviewed Natalie Goffinett, who has achieved her Master’s Degree in Social Work, and counsel’s children and families at that facility. When setting the appointment to interview Ms. Goffinett, I offered her the option to conduct the interview either in person or over the telephone. Ms. Goffinett and I agreed that an in person interview would be best if I wanted to have the opportunity to tour the facilities, as well as develop a sense for inpatient and outpatient environments. Deaconess Cross Pointe is a state licensed facility offering a full range of mental health services and psychiatric care which can meet the emotional and behavioral health care need of children, teen, adults, and their families. This facility meets, and exceeds my career goals and objectives; I would definitely consider working with this agency, as well as recommending others in need of the services that this facility provides.…

    Demographic data is gathered to give providers information on a client’s age, address and reason for seeking services. This data can identify environmental factors that can impact a child’s development. In this section of the developmental history form, the provider can learn that Quaushia is from an area of the city that is considered more volatile and violent than other areas. Many youth in these types of areas witness acts of violence on a frequent basis. The neighborhood can become an unsafe place where a child develops a sense of fear rather than a sense of community. Dr. Bruce Perry explains that “persisting fear and the neurophysiological adaptations to this fear can alter the development of a child’s brain, resulting in changes in physiological, emotional, behavioral, cognitive an social functioning” (Perry, 2001). The fact that Quaushia has been recommended for services because she is exhibiting physically aggressive behaviors may be a result of where she is living.…

    Children and teen-agers in the care of the Department of Children’s Services are struggling to cope with and deal with the traumatic and confusing events that brought them into care. Their lives have become chaotic and they may feel alone and depressed; often the most stable person in their lives is their caseworker. “Traumatic experiences and an increased susceptibility for further wounds from unstable environments created in foster care continue to increase the vulnerability of this already fragile population” (Jones Harden, 2004, p.30). Caring for children and youth in foster or substitute care can be truly complicated and demanding. When a child is in custody the state is to assume full responsibility for a child‘s well-being and permanency.…

    I have always been fascinated with human behavior. Somehow I instinctively knew that our behaviors are affected by many environmental factors. Thus, as a child, I found myself always attempting to psychoanalyze the behaviors of my friends, family, and television characters. In 2005, I enrolled in LeMoyne Owen College. Since LeMoyne does not offer a major in psychology, I elected sociology as my major. Although I loved studying the theories associated with Sociology; I wanted to pursue my studies in Psychology. As a result, I transferred to the University of Memphis in 2007. I hold a B.A. in Psychology and look forward to earning a Master Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I feel strongly that this is the path that God has put in place for me to take. I look forward to advancing my knowledge in psychology concepts such as brain function, cognition, attention, personality, behavior and many other methods, and researches tools that will better enable me to understand individuals and groups and assist them with their problems in order to help them become productive members of society. I worked for the Regional Intervention Program (RIP) as a classroom coordinator. The Regional Intervention Program has been serving families with young children since 1969. RIP is an internationally recognized parent implemented program in which parents learn to work directly with their own children. Experienced RIP parents provide training and support to newly enrolled families. The program is available to families in which there are concerns regarding a young child's behavior, and is coordinated by a professional resource staff person. This position provided me with an extraordinary view of maladies of childhood behaviors. Regional Intervention Program used the methods of Applied Behavioral Analysis; through this program I have witnessed countless behavioral problems change. Being able to work with children who have behavioral problems and seeing a…
