Problem: Read the following case study and respond accordingly.
An 8-year-old Native American boy (select a local Indigenous group to your area) presents in your office for significant behavioral changes at both home and school. Teachers report John Doe has thrown a trash can and a book at other students, and that the classroom had to be evacuated when he began to scream and tear things off the wall. His second-grade teacher states that she is worried for John and has been in contact with his parents. His parents (married, financially stable, and with one younger son in the home) also report that his sleep has been drastically changed and that he's prone to emotional outbursts that feature crying and yelling. There have been no major changes in either home or school. John is unable to say why his behavior has changed. The changes started approximately 3 weeks ago and have been increasing in both intensity and frequency.
In your response, describe the following:
