You will consider how EFT could be integrated into a case to best approach a presenting problem (rule or role change). This paper includes three parts. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\"><b style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">Part 1 \u2013 The Relationship<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\">You will create a scenario of clients that are coming in for relationship counseling because of a major shift in role or rule changes. Pick one of the following scenarios to create a case for your paper:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto;\">A couple that has been together a while and had specific gender roles that were agreed upon; however, one partner feels a need to shift these.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto;\">Partners where one person is seeking sexual experiences that the other partner is uncomfortable with.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto;\">When a person in a couple relationship \u201ccomes out\u201d as a sexual or gender minority.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto;\">When a couple (or one person in a couple) decides that they need to separate or get a divorce.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto;\">When there is a break in trust in relationships (e.g., infidelity).<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto;\">When one, or more than one, partner feels stuck in roles defined by the extended family culture or spiritual background. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\">The first part of your paper will be a case conceptualization of your fictional case. You will expand on the chosen scenario that you picked, be creative.
