Antwone Fisher’s
Theoretical Analysis
And
Application

1. Antwone Fisher’s character as a child displayed him experiencing the verbal, physical, sexual and mental abuse. He went from young boy growing up in a dysfunctional environment, to say the least. As Antwone matured into adulthood it became more apparent that the process of his childhood development was frustrated and he had not developed his distinct sense of self. Carl Roger’s client-centered theory states that as infants grow they develop a sense of self with ideas of whom they are and who they would like to be and through the approval from others, they will develop a positive self-regard (Schultz and Schultz, 2009). In Antwone’s story his experiences were very much the opposite. He grew into his idea self with client-center therapy and he learned to become a fully functioning person. He went from having a poor concept of self to becoming self-actualized and developed self-worth and dignity. Antwone’s journey to confront his pain permitted him to become emotionally healthy.
It is believed that as a child Antwone suffered from the debilitating fear in by large was from what he experienced regularly with in his environment. The constant hoping and wishing that his mother would come someday to save him from the atrocities he was enduring would lead one to assume that he suffered incurably. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a type of anxiety disorder that's triggered by a traumatic event. Individuals can develop post-traumatic stress disorder when they experience or witness a traumatic event that causes intense fear, helplessness and/or is a life threatening situation. Individuals who are involved in traumatic events have brief periods of difficulty adjusting and coping with the standards of life.
