Discussion Board Post Reply Prompt reply: Respond to at least two peers. Analyze their choice of intervention. Suggest additions to enhance their approach or propose alternatives. Peer 1: Jake, whom I chose to discuss his case stood out to me for some reason or multiple reasons. Treatment Intervention: Jake's treatment plans vary as it's multiple things to work on with him. Cognitive-behavioral therapy it helps a child be a better problem solver, implementing an IEP to help accommodate his academics which will give him more time on tests, classwork, etc. Medication will help with his ADHD but with a low dosage to start with, regular family meetings. More importantly for his treatment CBT and having with IEP will help Jake a lot. Rationale: Choosing these options for Jake will help with his self-esteem, his behavior, the way he is treated by others, and the way he treats others (family, friends, etc.) Incorporating an IEP for Jake at school will be successful and help with the difficulties he is faced with educationally. Roadblocks: Possible roadblocks that can occur would be his dad not following through with therapy and still being abusive which then triggers Jake's behaviors, the medication that he's taking is not working or he may need a higher dosage, and he's not having a consistent treatment routine which will cause spurs of disruptive violent behaviors to continue. Methods: I would say to keep Jake on a consistent routine, make sure that he's taking his medication, make sure that the teacher(s) are fully accommodating him academically, incorporate positive reinforcements to show Jake his progress on controlling his behaviors, and doing the right thing, and make sure that his support is also doing their part as well. Peer 2: For Kelli, I would recommend a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication. CBT can help her manage and cope with the emotional challenges associated with her symptoms, addressing the impact on her self-esteem and social interactions. Medication, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or antipsychotics, may help alleviate the involuntary movements. The rationale for this intervention lies in the need to address both the psychological and neurological aspects of her condition. CBT can empower Kelli with coping strategies and emotional resilience, while medication targets the neurological underpinnings of her symptoms. Possible roadblocks could include Kelli's initial resistance to therapy or potential side effects of medication. To address resistance, building a trusting therapeutic relationship is essential. Monitoring and managing medication side effects involve close collaboration between the neurologist, therapist, and Kelli's family. If the intervention were used with a child, adjustments might be needed in the delivery of CBT to make it age-appropriate, emphasizing more on family involvement. With an adult, the therapy may delve deeper into long-term coping strategies and independence
