I believe the intervention will work for Kevin because based on the information provided Kevin seems open to new experiences and is ok will small group setting. The CTRS can build on this notion and show Kevin large group setting are nothing to fear just like the smaller group setting he is comfortable with. In the clinical summary it states that Kevin is involved in the right activities, so he is less shy in leisure activities. I believe this is a skill the CTRS can utilize because it shows Kevin is willing to try new things. Slowing increasing the group size and involving activities Kevin already enjoys will definitely help Kevin meet his treatment goal. I also believe this will be successful because the CTRS is taking into account
Lauren Smith is a five year old Caucasian girl who is demonstrating anxiety when separated from her mother. The family was referred to this service by their pediatrician. Over the past few months, Mr. and Mrs. Smith report Lauren has become increasingly troubled when being separated from her mother. She cries while clinging to her each morning before school and her father describes having to “pry her off” and carry her to the car. Lauren’s parents are also concerned with regressive behavior; she is speaking more often in third person when referring to herself, and she has also begun wetting the bed nearly every night. Mr. and Mrs. Smith had a conference with Lauren’s teacher two weeks ago at which time she told them Lauren was having difficulty concentrating and completing her work. The teacher also voiced concerns about her lack of interest in participating in group activities; she appears to prefer to play by herself. The parents report that Lauren is otherwise healthy and has been meeting age appropriate developmental milestones.
Robert would receive individual counseling as well to help him cope with the idea of being in a new environment that is not the residential facility. This will be more of an adjustment for him but it important that he is still receiving the services needed to keep him at the high functioning that he is currently at. He would also experience TBRI because it will be beneficial for him to have a constant support in all his environment and it important that he is able to adjust without regressing back to pass behaviors.
A limitation of making it mandatory for the entire family to attend the initial session is that it may be hard to control. When the whole family is together, it may lead to lots of shouting which can cause the session to take a negative turn. The members can get out of control and ultimately the session will be counterproductive to the treatment process. It is important that members speak at one time and give each member a chance to express their feelings. Another limitation is that some members may prefer to speak individually rather than in a larger group. When required to participate in a group therapy, they may feel uncomfortable and be unwilling to engage.

Intervention Central is a free online resource for teachers and school districts to use for the implementation of intervention in or outside of the classroom while following the Common Core State Standards.

A unique aspect of the cognitive behavioral approach in group therapy is the focus on specific target areas of change. The members are responsible for formulating specific statements of the personal goals they want to achieve. The group leader is responsible for helping the members break down their goals into specific, concrete, and measureable goals. An agenda is set at the beginning of each session in a collaborative fashion with the members and group leader in order to prioritize
Group therapy is an important method that is commonly used by psychiatric professionals in the treatment of many types of mental illnesses. They consist of three or more people and are targeted at promoting psychological development and change. There are three different types of groups. The task group works by using tasks, such as activities and techniques, designed to help clients work toward desired goals. In addition, midrange groups work by allowing clients to share their thoughts and feelings with others who have learned to cope with similar problems over a longer period of time. Lastly, process groups work by allowing clients to work on their communicating patterns, skills and methods (Fortinash & Holoday Worrett, 2008).
