Case Conceptualization
The clients behavior was triggered by recent feeling of abandonment, deception and
insecurity brought about by the disappearance of her husband. However, such
emotions might already be present earlier because of her past experiences (being a
product of a broken family, early pregnancy, poverty, failed relationships, etc.) Her
social awkwardness may be a product of shame caused by her failed relationship and
loss of self-esteem (due to the fact that both of her partners found someone new).Her
anger and depression may be a result of fear of what will happen next, since all her
resources are gone and she have lots of children to raise.

this, she may also be going through RELATIONAL PROBLEM related to Primary
