An overview of human development throughout the lifetime in the family, social and cultural context. The individual and family life cycles are viewed as mutually interactive processes that are also affected by such factors as biology/genetics, gender, race, ethnicity, acculturation, religion, etc. The development of the individual is traced chronologically through a survey of a select number of major theoretical approaches. Factors influencing development such as developmental tasks, family, and cultural context are explored concurrently. This exploration serves as a backdrop for client assessment and case conceptualization. Prerequisite: COUN541.
