Ethnicity:? African American Examiner:? Religion: Christian I. Presenting problem. The family is seeking treatment for Lee, particularly his mother because of his problem associated with alcohol drinking. The said problem may have potential impact on his life in the future, and even at present such behavior triggers undesirable effect to his mother and to the people around him like his friends. II. Background Lee becomes abusive at some point when drinking. Report shows that he can consume at most 12 cans of beer per drinking episode in at most four nights in a week. His addiction to alcohol is developing and he is aware of this, as manifested from a certain episode when he decided to quit drinking alcohol for about 30 days, and his fear not to play his favorite sports that could send him to college athletic scholarship program. III. Risks & Resources. Physical (biological, genetic, neurological, etc.) Under the physical area, there is a hint that Lee is influenced by his father, but problem with alcohol may be genetic in this case. This might be the reason why he behaves the way his father did with alcohol. However, the problem with alcohol in the case of Lee might be the kind that can also take the physical environment as another influential factor for his behavior towards substance abuse like alcohol. This tendency is again might be influenced by his father, as the immediate factor that has the potential impact on Lee’s prevailing neurological development and understanding of the physical reality. Cognitive/academic Lee fears that his addiction with alcohol might restrain him from obtaining academic scholarship and eventually his involvement in the most loved sports he is engaged in. In this case, the academic environment and his desire to play his favorite sports are sufficient motivating factors that can eventually help him develop a positive perspective towards the peril linked to alcohol abuse. There might be a tendency that Lee is performing poorly in his academic because of alcohol abuse, though he denied it in the first place. However, as evident from his level of worry placed on not being able to play his favorite sports in the varsity once his alcohol problem is discovered is a kind of realization that has the potential strength to bring him a positive change towards his outlook in alcohol abuse. This means that his memory is indeed functional, but his last episode of drinking might show a decline in his cognitive development because he is not able to recall what happened by then. Emotional regulation (mood affect) At some point, one can say that Lee has the positive consciousness about his behavior when intoxicated with alcohol based on the responses he receives from his friends and mother. However, based on the information received from him, it turned out that mood and affect were unremarkable. Although, he started drinking alcohol at the age of 14, which is a remarkable age when a person socializes and even faces various emotional problems because of some biological changes and social pressures. This means that Lee might just have been covering up the real score, as far as emotional affect is concerned. Relationship capacity Recently, Lee’s mental status revealed that he was oriented for person. This is a remarkable evidence to support the claim that he has strong capacity to take care of a relationship, which evidently shows why he can effectively manage to go out with friends and drink with them.
