Anna Maria is a newcomer at the senior high


school program of SJF University. Being new to
the school, she is observed to be silent and
avoids interaction in groups very often. Three
months after, the situation remains the same
as she still finds difficulty building
relationships. She prefers to eat, to study and
walk alone. Bothered by the situation of Anna,
her adviser in class referred the case to the
school’s social worker.
