Question: Modifying Theoretical Interventions for Clients Experiencing Life Transition and Developmental Issues

In all likelihood, developmental and life transition issues will form the core of your work as a marriage, couple, and family counselor. These issues are those that couples and families typically encounter through common day-to-day living and may include being newly married, having a child, or sending a youngest child off into his or her own adulthood. They also may include common stressors such as divorce, job loss, or death of a family member, just to name a few. Individuals across all cultures experience developmental and life transition issues in one way or another, and you likely will find yourself sitting across from a couple or family experiencing a similar life event to one you have encountered in your own life.

Despite the universality of many developmental and life transition issues, you should still keep in mind that there is no one way to experience a divorce, death, or job loss, nor is there one way to clinically encounter and assist a couple or family experiencing such issues. Different theoretical orientations may suggest different ways for addressing various scenarios, and you may have to modify your chosen theoretical orientation to work effectively with different clients. For this Discussion, choose one life transition or developmental issue, and consider how you might modify your theoretical orientation or infuse interventions from other theories in order to address this issue.
