 * Overview:** Your final project will be using a combination of skills learned in Unit 12 (Abnormal Psych) and Unit 13 (Psych Therapies). You and your assigned partner(s) will be given a well-known fairy tale that you are familiar with from your childhood.

From this fairy tale you are to pick one character that you will diagnosis and treat for a psychological disorder. Although these characters have not officially been “diagnosed” you are to analyze behavior and look for the signs of abnormal functioning.

Once your character has been diagnosed you will choose a therapy method that best suits your client and act out your sessions using the sock puppet app on the ipad.




 * Directions-Part #1:**
 * 1) Pick a character from your assigned fairy tale
 * 2) Identify dysfunctional, distressful, and deviant behavior
 * 3) Create a case record for your client (looks like the forms we used to practice)
 * 4) Write a **five**paragraph summary of your client: items to include:
 * 5) Introduction and background
 * 6) Discuss abnormal behavior
 * 7) What type of therapy will be used and why
 * 8) What do you hope the client will get out of the therapy method
 * Directions-Part #2:**
 * 1) Once you have completed part #1 you are to create dialogs for two therapy sessions. In session #1 you will ask questions from the DSM-IV to help you diagnosis your client. Be sure to include **five** questions from each axis (1-4) and rate your client on the global scale.
 * 2) In session #2 you will begin your therapy and act out your selected method.
 * 3) You and your partner will create **two** sock puppet episodes, **one** for the diagnosis of your client and **one** for the treatment.
 * 4) You must be creative and use the entire episode allowed time.
 * 5) Change background and dress your puppet like your character.
 * To Be Turned In:**
 * 1) One **five** paragraph summary of your client-must use **20** vocabulary terms (underline terms in paragraphs)
 * 2) **Two** sock puppet scripts-one for the diagnosis and one for the therapy-each script must have at least **15** entries for each person (therapist and client).
 * 3) Your sock puppet episodes will be posted on YouTube (directions to follow).


 * Need to Know:**
 * 1) Several class blocks will be given for you to work on your project (schedule below)
 * 2) Be sure to use time effectively and communicate with your partner
 * 3) Use Google drive to share your work with your partner
