You can use any of the theories you wish. They all can be adapted to that situation. I would recommend reading through a couple and finding which one you identify with. After identifying with one, and understanding how it even applies to your own practice, it's easy to use it in your study.

I found after reading and identifying with I.M. King's system's theory, it helped me to be able to define and work within my own scope of practice more successfully.
