Case formulation

The Hernandez parents, Juan Senior and Elena are brought for sessions by the ACS as a result of their son’s abuse allegations. Juan Hernandez is a 27 year old Latino man who works as a casual worker at the airport with back problems due to the amount of heavy lifting he has to do on a daily basis. He has no drug abuse problem but a criminal history of juvenile petty theft that has since been expunged. 

Additionally, he drinks approximately six to eight beers every weekend. On the other hand, Elena is a 25 year old Latino woman born in Puerto Rico but raised in New York who was recently diagnosed with diabetes. She has no drug abuse problem nor a criminal history. She drinks 1 or 2 drinks a month.
