Meet Candyce. She is a 27-year old, female client comes to Safe Harbour. She reports that she lives with her partner in Red Deer, but he is away on a business trip for a few days. She also states her 3-year old daughter lives with them. You observe a disheveled and malnourished appearance. You discover multiple soft tissue bruises from your assessment that the client tries to hide upon observation. You notice a flat affect, poor eye contact, and that she is easily startled from sudden movements. She states “Life is too hard, I don’t know how much longer I can take this.. drinking is the only thing that takes away the pain.” When you ask about her partner, she becomes withdrawn and mutters “maybe coming here was a mistake.”
