The case of SueSue is a 24-year-old Caucasian elementary school teacher who started coming to see you for counseling 3 months ago because she was experiencing moderate depressive symptoms. When she originally presented for counseling, she reported a history of depression. You have been working with her using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and teaching her coping skills for depression. Sue came in for her regularly scheduled appointment and was accompanied by her husband, Zion, who is extremely worried about her. Sue’s husband states that, for several days including this weekend, she was not herself. He reports that she didn’t sleep much but wasn’t tired. She was highly keyed up, talking constantly. Zion reports that she couldn’t seem to focus on anything and was fixated on the idea that something awful was going to happen. She told him she doesn’t want him or the children out of sight. Zion states that there is no reason to expect that something awful would happen, but Sue was too upset and distracted to listen to reason. When pressed, he states that her symptoms lasted all day for 4 days but definitely not for a full week. Sue has never used drugs and is not on medication. No plagiarism please.
