Apply Theories and Techniques to School-Based Intervention

Background

In this module, you learned about various theories and techniques that have proven helpful with students exposed to trauma. As stated in the beginning of this course, you will add another component to your school-based intervention plan in each of the modules. Please feel free to edit content from Assignment 1, but in this assignment you need focus on the addition of theories and specific techniques that can help those students having difficulty from being exposed to trauma. You may create your intervention plan however you would like, but review the Additional Resources section below for inspiration and free design and presentation tools.

Instructions

Research, choose, and thoroughly describe two counseling theories and specific techniques that help students who have been exposed to trauma. (Example: solution-focused theory, narrative therapy, CBT). Please add at least two theories to your school-based intervention plan. Also include the infographic you created in Assignment 1 as you begin to assemble your comprehensive school-based intervention plan (which you will submit in Signature Assignment 4). Be sure to include all of the following:

• Identify two counseling theories/techniques that help students who have been exposed to trauma
• Write a focused description of the two counseling theories/techniques that you chose
• Explain how the two theories/techniques would be effective for students who have been exposed to trauma
• APA citations, where needed

Remember: this should be designed to communicate appropriately to all stakeholders who impact student lives (administrators, teachers, parents, districts, and outside agencies such as group homes, foster agencies, juvenile justice system, etc.). Be sure to include both preparedness and response in your plan.
