Epileptic And Intellectual Analysis
Through my experience as a Free Arts Minnesota mentor at Family Partnership, I have gotten the chance to really understand each child’s personality. I know which child is going to be able to stay focused on the story we are reading, want to participate in singing and dancing, and be able to complete the art project without a temper tantrum. After I leave family partnership, I reflect back on my experience later in the day. I often think to myself what their family life must be like, and how their families influence who these children are. Similar to the story, Epileptic, these children may have demons in their lives that follow them around and cause them to act out. A specific example if these demons affecting the children is seen when I interact

    In The Family Crucible, a unique way of looking at family therapy is used. This approach probably would not be something that would be done by therapist now. The more that we study systemic approaches the less I believe that there are any individual problems. With that being said there is a long reach that effects of parenting has on a child.…

    This also puts emphasis on planning, the child only spends one day a week at the setting and if the setting had planned properly in advance they could have sent the child's key worker on a home visit. This would have allowed the key worker to begin forming a relationship with both the child and parent. This would also provide the practitioner with an insight into the child's family life. If the planning had been more in depth for this particular child then they would have found that the child was from a single parent family. This may insinuate that they would experience a lot of separation anxiety when leaving their main care giver. Sigmund Freud, a neurologist who focused on the human mind and personalities, introduced the idea of transitional objects. Freud's theory supports 'play as therapy', where children use one thing to represent another. Children can use play to work through their emotions and feelings, this can be done through toys that they bring in from home (Baker et al, 2013, P328). Children attach themselves to specific objects that they are familiar with and objects that make them feel comfortable. These objects are often blankets, dummies or soft toys which the child has at home that is used to comfort them in times of upset. Allowing the child to bring these objects into…

    The children of multigenerational abuse are also good at dissociation. The Illuminati families and European occultists went to India, and Tibet to study occultism and eastern philosophy. These Europeans learned yoga, tantric yoga, meditations, and trances and other methods to disassociate. These skills are passed on to their children via genetics. A test is run when the children are about 18 months old to determine if they can dissociate enough to be selected for programming or not.…

    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…

    Not only do neurological disorders have an effect on education, but they can cause other mental problems. Learning disabilities are diagnosed when one or more areas of learning are below expectations, but not explained by certain intellectual abilities, sensory abnormalities, or lack of opportunities.
