CLIENT
3RD GRADE
9 YEARS OLD
BACKGROUND
The client lives with her biological mom and is the oldest of four children. She is
a sweet mannered child but has been acting out in the classroom. She is
having academic issues and is struggling with current changes at home.
Her mother was involved in a car accident and is healing from that. Prior to
that, the mother and her partner went through a recent separation. It appears
that the mother is having a hard time coping and is currently being placed in
and out of the hospital with mental health issues. The client and the 3 other
siblings are being cared for by her mothers partner and the grandmother.
The child has been told to keep these things a secret form the teachers but has
expressed a concern for her mother and needs someone to talk to.
