Assignment Problem: An 8-year-old Native American boy (please select a local Indigenous group to your area) presents in your office for significant behavioral changes at both home and school. Teacher's report John Doe has thrown a trash can and a book at other students, and that the classroom had to be evacuated when he began to tear things off the wall and screaming. His second-grade teacher states that she is worried for John and has been in contact with his parents. His parents (married, financially stable, and with one younger son in the home) also report that his sleep has been drastically changed and that he's prone to emotional outbursts that feature crying and yelling. There have been no major changes in either home or school. John is unable to say why his behavior has changed. The changes started approximately 3 weeks ago and have been increasing in both intensity and frequency.
In your response, include how you will assess John Doe (what formal or informal assessment you choose), ethical reporting, and resource facilitation for John Doe. Discuss the need for trauma focused treatment. Substantiate your rationale with scholarly sources. Cite any scholarly references accordingly using in-text citations and a reference list.
