In taking an empathic approach with Julie is likely to make her more positive about opening up and crowing her an outlet to speak about what she has sought therapy for.

This will be by proceeds in that she can attend to venting her thwarting and allowing her to help disregard the thrust of the anger, frustration, and volatile nature of conflict with her former husband.Based on the evidence at hand to domiciliate superior quality of care relevant to Julie would involve direct and in-depth identification of her needs and being responsive to much(prenominal) will help assist the structure, employment and result of therapy. Given her depression a high level of empathetic language and attendance in respectfulness is required. In achieving an even high level of care ethical and holistic approaches are to be factored in also.In assisting treatment with Julie engagement with other specialised agencies would be of benefit in that they can provide more thorough assistance in the underlying issues for treatment progression.In respect of Julies emotional farming I would highly recommend want assessment and ongoing treatment with her local general practitioner. This will assist in thorough diagnosis of her current mental health and, if as indicated, Julie is suffering depression from the impact of changes in her life, whence this will allow for medical intervention in the form of prescribed medication to be used in the lag treatment.Julie has also been affected by a marital breakdown and is now facing a hostile relationship between her former partner and herself. Given th e length of the relationship involving marriage, obtainment of assets and liabilities and children from the former relationship, in fussy her son who is a minor aged 14 years, it would be of want to Julie to seek legal intervention to ascertain her legal rights and come bring the monetary and parental responsibility that live ons to finality.Although at first recommendation would be to seek advice only and in this regard I would recommend her contacting a community legal centre in her area to obtain such relevant information. If in fact, further intervention were necessary from the outset of the advice received, arrangements could then be sought to facilitate engagement by way of intermediation between herself and her former partner and in this regard advice to contact such services providing relationship mediation like Relationships Australia, Interrelate, CatholicCare, Anglicare or any other alike service expatiate would be provided to Julie.With connecting Julie with one of t he pre-mentioned services it will allow her to access more than just mediation given that the services are community family based, they can also offer Julie with information and provide further services for her concerns raised in relation to her children, in particular(prenominal) Damien.Julie expresses the desire for career development in accounting though lacks office believing that she is not able to as her employment and education has been limited. Julie has in effect been limited by non-completion of her higher education, parental responsibilities and her former partner insisting that she take on the role of full-time caregiver to the children however Julie has managed to maintain some part-time employment in a customer service role.Approach to be taken in assisting her goal, alongside therapy for profit of self-confidence, and medical intervention by her local general practitioner, would be providing details or arranging an appointment for her to attend upon a career coun selor counsellor. This would give her the networking tools to assess the possibilities and educational resources that can be offered to her and by seeking assistance from a professional in this area will provide her with further resources for educational and employment opportunities.Such services that would be provided to Julie, and their corresponding details would be training and/or educational institutions like TAFE, university alter programs, WEA and other relevant local community institutions. Connecting Julie with employment agencies providing details to Julie of employment agencies that can assist in accountancy roles or facilitation of education such as Randstad or Hudson to assist in these aspects.Successful therapy would involving guiding Julie to be able to transition from her current circumstances and gain effective tools to recognise, process and deal with situations that arise assisting also in alleviating any future conditions that she may be susceptible to. This c an be done by practical application of a recognised framework such that initial structure can be established, development of rapport between Julie and I identification of the problems that exist exploration of herself together with her perceptions and behaviours the possible assessments and acquisition of environmental input such as assimilation, problem solving and decision making creation of stick out of action continual follow up with Julie and the possibilities of development with additional strategies introductory to termination.Helena Gorton Student 377 160 6491 (Cingolani, 1984 Behroozi, 1992 De Jong Berg, 2001).2 http//www.counsellingtutor.com/counselling-approaches/person-centred-approach-to-counselling/
