professional activities common to clinical and counseling psychologists and assume the role of an advocate for a client
in one of the case studies from Case Studies in Abnormal Psychology (Gorenstein & Comer, 2015). Select a case study
that has not been covered in this course or in the PSY645 course, and identify systemic barriers, sociopolitical factors,
and multicultural issues impacting the client at the micro, meso, exo, and/or macro levels. Develop an action plan that
outlines how you might advocate for the client at each appropriate level of the ecological model. Identify two potential
partnerships that you would establish in order to support your client and those like him or her outside of the therapeutic
environment. Guided Response: Review several of your colleagues posts and respond to at least two of your peers who
chose a different case study than you by 11:59 p.m. on Day 7 of the week. You are encouraged to post your required
replies earlier in the week to promote more meaningful interactive discourse in this discussion. Carefully review the
Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate this Discussion Thread. This section lists
