Jane is a 69-year-old black, married, retired female who lives with her husband. She was referred to you for individual counseling to work on severe anxiety and moderate depression. Jane's physical health has been declining after injuring her knee a year ago. Jane has been doing water aerobics weekly, and was working a part-time job and active in her prior to the onset of the medical problem. Jane underwent surgery to repair the injury, however, she still reports weakness and some numbness which impacts most daily activities. When Jane comes to meet with you, she is tearful and reluctantly using a walker. She tells you that she had delayed coming to therapy for a week in hopes of feeling better but finally came at the urging of her husband and using the walker for the first time that day to steady herself. Jane's doctor informed her that there is nothing more he can do to help her and suggested pain medication which Jane does not want to take because it makes her feel sick. Since receiving this news, Jane has been feeling more down and has been isolating herself and has refused to seek a second opinion despite her husband's urging because she does not feel any doctors will listen to her or understand. Using Multicultural Feminist Theory, how do you help to empower Jane and encourage her to explore other medical options? What strategies do you incorporate to address Jane's depression and anxiety?
