Client Factors:Naomi is a 30-year-old African American woman who recently divorced her husband due to years of verbal and emotional abuse. She reports feeling relief from the divorce, but also struggles with anxiety, depression, guilt, and self-doubt. Naomi is working full-time as a teacher and is living alone, but she feels isolated and disconnected from her social circle. She finds it difficult to talk about her experiences, fearing judgment and misunderstanding. Naomi identifies as Christian, though she has distanced herself from her church community due to concerns about feeling excluded. She remembers growing up in a household where emotional expression was discouraged, which has contributed to her difficulty in processing and articulating her feelings. Naomi is highly motivated to move forward, but uncertain about how to rebuild her self-esteem, establish healthy relationships, and find her place within a supportive community. ----------------------------- Question 3.
