Case Example:
“Beth” is a 24-year-old, heterosexual, Caucasian female who is currently serving a sentence at a Correctional Institution for Women. Her current time stems from a parole violation and records indicate that she has one month to serve out. Beth has several issues that are at the basis for her referral from the institutional Psychiatrist. First, she has a history of suicidal ideation and severe self-mutilation. Secondly, she presents with fluctuating mood symptoms and features of Borderline, Histrionic, and Antisocial Personality Disorders. Beth was referred to the institution’s Licensed Clinical Social Worker for integrative treatment with a focus on trauma, crisis management and the reduction of self-mutilating behaviors. Additionally, the therapist has scheduled a family session with Beth and her parents dealing with home placement and reentry concerns.
Treatment and Medical History

She also has experienced several deaths that were the focus of previous treatment including the death of a child last year (born while she was incarcerated).

Beth reports a long history of medical issues, primarily related to the neglect of her medical needs. Her current concerns are related to “aches and pains related to a bad back”. She currently is not taking medicine other than Tylenol. Additionally, the medical staff is not receptive to Beth’s concerns because she has a history of ‘manipulation’ and ‘drug seeking behaviors’ per her case notes.
