The most difficult client for me to work with would have to be a client who is in a demostic violence relationship but is unwilling to leave the relationship due to religious or moral teachings. I chose this statement because in today's society domestic viloence is occuring, in relationships and marriages. It would be hard for me because, I know for myself that it would make me angry right away. Only because individuals let there significant other beat on them, call them names, and what ever else and it's evident that you do not have to live with. That person surely deserves better. Although religion and moral teachings is a huge part of why that person won't leave. But I'll say this, either you leave or you're probably going to be beat to death. Leave and make a statement, let him/her know that if they keep beating on you, you won't be around. Let them suffer without you, because just as much as he/she is beating on you, leaving them would hurt even worse. As for those children who have been in domestic viloence, I know it's harder to take them away from the scene. But it is important for the child to seek help too. Physical violence off all one of the worse things, because it could cause physical and mental problems, arthritis, hypertension, heart disease (long-term DV), loosing jobs due to absenteesim due to results of physical beating, loosing family and friends, embarrassment, abandonment, the list goes on. As for children who witness or are involved in DV demonstrate behavioral/emotional problems, stuttering, anxiety, fears, sleep disruption, excessive crying and school problems. No one should have to through this type of treatment. We weren't put on earth to be beat to death. I would ask this client, what's more important, your health and well-being or sleeping with the

Presenting problems: Natalie came in for “concerns about her boyfriend, Larry Watkins, over the past six months”.

    The first thing that comes to my mind after seeing the appearance of my client is that knowing that treating domestic violence victims requires specialized training even though many people believe that short term counseling and advocacy are what is necessary to successfully treat domestic violence victims, many times a long term approach needs to be taken in an effort to work through the abuse and to help victims to not get into future relationships that are abusive. These factors are essential in beginning sessions, most all victims of abuse have experienced emotional trauma as a result of being in an abusive relationship. Dealing with these issues takes time, and cannot be worked through in just a few sessions. After these issues have been…

    The “domestic” part doesn’t matter—violence is violence. There was a time when victims of domestic violence could be silenced, and many people didn’t pay attention to the seriousness of the situation. Their pleas fell upon deaf ears, as our society looked the other way. Nowadays that is not the case; we live in a time where victims of all ages, genders, and ethnicities have a much stronger voice. They no longer allow themselves to be denied of any help or awareness of their situation. Victims are now using their experiences to speak out to heal themselves, while strengthening others. However, even with the resources available, and the cognizance brought upon to our society, many still do not understand the extent of what victims go through, and how much they actually suffer not just during, but long after getting away from their abuser. Victims suffer mental effects from domestic violence because not only does it cause the victim physical damage from the abuse, but it also causes post-traumatic stress, anxiety and even mental instability from watching the abuse take place.…

    How does this client manage sexual abuse, child abuse, delinquency and crime? None of these must be taken lightly. If a child is bullied, the social worker and the police will be included. The social worker will is required to visit the victim and his or her family. If abuse is proven, therefore, the child will be terminated from the house and placed in a foster home. The parents will now lose custody and be charged with child neglect in the appropriate procedures. Sexual abuse is also gravely serious. When a report regarding sexual abuse happens, the police are also included. The criminal is charged and arrested into custody.

    Upon accepting a social work job in a new setting, I would focus on client strengths and limitations while also assessing the potential for violence by taking the time to acquaint myself with the organization safety policies, risk assessment forms and processes, as well as federal and state safety requirements. Probably the best way to begin my assessment is by accessing the state of Kansas and the federal government established correctional systems to obtain the client’s background history. Familiarizing myself with the client history and the organization safety policies and processes allows me the opportunity to establish safety barriers therefore decreasing the opportunity for potential violence.…

    According to Payne and Wermeling’s research, many victims remain in abusive relationships to avoid retaliation towards them or their children and revictimization of victims occurs at rates as high as 32% within 6 months of the first case of domestic violence (Payne & Wermeling, 2009). Some victims even try to work things out with their attackers by meeting their demands or simply trying to talk out their “problems”, which can lead to further abuse. “The most common reasons for not reporting domestic violence to police are that victims view the incident as a personal or private matter, they fear retaliation from their abuser, and they do not believe that police will do anything about the incident,” according to the Feminist Majority Foundation’s research (FMF,…
