Social Science - Identify the pervasive mental illness or health concern

Social Science

For this Assignment, consider a couple/family where one member has a severe and persistent mental illness. (Note: This may be a fictitious case or a case from your professional experience). Think about how you would conceptualize the couple’s/family’s problems using the lens of your chosen theoretical orientation. Using the W Library, locate two evidence-based journal articles that support interventions for the present issue.
