(Note: This may be a fictitious case or a case from your professional experience). Think about how you would conceptualize the couple’s/family’s problems using the lens of your chosen theoretical orientation. Using the Walden Library, locate two evidence-based journal articles that support interventions for the present issue.The Assignment (2–3 pages)Identify the pervasive mental illness or health concern present in the couple/family.Conceptualize the couple’s/family’s problem through your chosen theoretical orientation.Design a treatment plan including short- and long-term goals.Explain two evidence-based interventions you would use to address the couple’s/family’s issues and how you would use them.
