PART 2

Discharge Summary

Anderson was successfully discharged from our agency after completing the Therapy program he had been assigned to and free from any emotional baggage he had been suffering from before in July 2022.

Date of Discharge: July 5th, 2022.

Therapist: AMW

Progress Towards Goals

Status: Completed

Notes: Anderson managed to attend all the scheduled meetings and appointments with his social group and best friend as well as with me, his therapist. He successfully managed to let go all the guilt he had before and no longer fears using a car.

Goal 1:

Rafe Anderson shall enroll for therapy in Gentle Blooming Therapy and Counseling for April 2022.

Status: Completed

Notes: I scheduled an appointment with Anderson with the intent to discuss the way forward and the necessary means for him to be assisted. He had another appointment with me to jointly come up with the most appropriate method to help him counter his deepest feelings of sadness , whereby we resorted to use the five stage grieving process. Anderson also met with me and we discussed how the five stage grieving process has so far been working out for him whereby he was already at the bargaining stage. We finally had another appointment where we discussed his triggers and urgent issues.

Goal 2:

I will work together with Anderson to come up with ways to help in resolving his emotional difficulty.

Status: Completed

Notes: Anderson and I were able to suggest an appropriate Social gathering group that would help him. This was a gathering or group which was meant to discuss various encounters that help individuals rant and let off some weight. Anderson was able to join the group as discussed. Anderson was with my help able to schedule a meeting with his friend whereby they talked bout life and also took that chance to catch up on the events that had been happening. He was meeting with Mike every once a week to talk about general issues of life which helped him ignite his social life. In addition, I managed to schedule a meeting with Anderson whereby I gave him a chance to express how the five stages of grieving are turning out for him and he managed to push through to the last stage which is acceptance.

Goal 3

Anderson will show acceptance to the reality of his loss and express adjustment to life without his father and at the same time maintain a connection to his deceased father while continuing with his life.

Status: Completed

Notes: This goal was also achieved as Anderson was making a tremendous improvement and was ready to be helped. Anderson expressed a great improvement in the grieving stage as he was already done with the depression stage and was now at the acceptance stage.

At this point, I helped Anderson come to terms with reality and the way of life. Anderson managed to commit to live a life free of guilt and honor his deceased father even if it meant forgetting the incidence for a while and focused on the current events. Lastly, I also provided him with additional information to help him move on. For instance, I enlightened him on avoiding various triggers that reminded him of his father’s death such as watching accident related documentaries.

Our Recommendations for Anderson’s Future

- He may utilize our agency therapy seminars held once each month in order to track his mental state and be enlightened on how to handle other issues that might affect his progress.

- He should continue attending the Social help group we linked him with as well as getting in touch with his friend to share one or two life issues.

- He should start reading various studies and readings aimed at helping people to handle emotional baggage appropriately without being overwhelmed.

- He may want to create a professional group to help individuals who have been through similar circumstances as the once he was in and in the process shall benefit himself too.

We shall be following up with Anderson once every month until his life gets back to normal and he stops being car phobic.

Anderson’s Plans For The Future

“ I want to get my life together and back to normal like it was before the death of my father and be productive at work. I am really optimistic that I will be able to accept fate that happens and perceive it as part of life. I have set my own goal of helping other people like me who are struggling with various occurrences beyond their control and assist them come to terms with life's challenges. I will probably keep going to my Social Help Group but probably less often when I get my professional career together since I will be busy most of the time. To be honest, it has played a great role in moving on. I am also confident that whenever I need assistance in future, I can always reach out to my Therapist AMW, he will help me.”
