PSYCHOTHERAPY PAPER:  (36 points)
In addition to the resources from course textbooks, search the literature for additional resources about the therapy chosen. Be sure to also include the most recent scholarly literature (no general websites, blogs, YouTube, Wikipedia). Based on these resources students are to write a brief paper not to exceed 4-5 pages (this does not include the title page or the reference page) addressing the following:

Overview history of the development of the therapy (you may have to use an older reference source for this).
A summary of your understanding of the theory in your own words. (This is to demonstrate your synthesis of the knowledge and understanding about the theory.)
Identification of evidence-based therapeutic uses for the therapy and rationale.
Advanced practice nursing implications for utilization of this therapy.
Identify what clients this therapy is appropriate for (age, diagnoses, intellectual functioning, setting, etc.) and how you would determine this is the appropriate modality for the identified clients.
Reference list of resources used in APA format.  References should be within the last 5 years. This is not an opinion paper, support all of your ideas with sources.
