Describe two issues in your chosen case that would be important for
intervention.
When assessing Tiffani Bradley case study, several concerns can be
identified as important areas for social work intervention and treatment planning
(Walden University, LLC. 2022). For this analysis, two primary issues stand out as
especially significant in supporting effective change and improving overall
outcomes. The first issue to address with the client would the childhood neglect
and trauma from her parents and other family members that contributed to her
current state. Holtzhausen et al. (2016) explain that social workers are often
requested to support traumatized children and adolescents who have experienced
physical, sexual, psychological, or emotional abuse. Social workers should
advocate for these children and serve as a voice for their needs as they recover
from the effects of childhood trauma. The second issue to address would be
Tiffani’s current living environment within the abusive settings with Donald and
her current involvement in prostitution. Confronting these issues is imperative to
Tiffani’s overall wellbeing by centering in on both her immediate safety and her
long-term emotional and psychological recovery.
Identify one evidence-based intervention for each issue (from peer-
reviewed journals). How do you know these interventions are “evidence-
based”? Refer to the main characteristics of evidence-based practice (EBP)
in your explanation.
Tiffani’s childhood trauma is highly projected throughout the assessment of
this case. This, and its association with post-traumatic stress disorder, causes
Tiffani to repeat maladaptive behaviors and remain in abusive cycles. An evidence-
based approach that would be most effective in this case would be trauma-
