Dr Wydra Case Study

Decent Essays
My last and final question to Dr. Wydra consisted of wanting to know if she could tell her past self anything while going through school what would it be? Her response was, that B’s get Ph.Ds. and that she wishes she had given herself a little slack while completing her degree requirements while better enjoying her life. This question also really hit home for me because I tend to neglect my social life while in college because I stress highly over getting into graduate school. I am definitely one of those people who believe if I fail an assignment or something of that nature I will never make it into graduate school. The fact that Maria stated she wished she had given herself more free time makes me feel a little better and even consider how

    We all have a small voice in our head that talks to us as we go about our day. It may ask us, “what’s for dinner?” in the middle of class, keep us awake at night, and tells us when we’re feeling happy or sad. In our day to day life, we are subconsciously dependent on this voice. Sometimes we listen to everything it says, and sometimes we ignore it.…

    How would you feel if you were the mother to seventeen children, fourteen of which were your natural born children and three of which you were fostering? How would you feel if there were special needs, emotional problems, and heavy demands in their care? The noise, the mess, the needs, and the attention demands of them could be enough to drown out the “self” in many people today. “You could lose yourself in that,” Clarisa Gailey recounts as we sit in her living room. According to Clarisa, it certainly would have done so for her, and her life would be rewritten today had it not been for what she experienced in her early college career.…

    I’ll never forget the moments of watching all my friends being able to go to the playground and enjoy themselves as I would have to walk to a different classroom to my ESOL class. ESOL was an English practicing class, it allowed for students that knew very few English and was a method for us to learn and practice our English. Towards the end of the class as we all headed back from recess, or in my case from ESOL I would have a short time to speak and talk to my friends, and they would always ask about my whereabouts. I would try to explain to them exactly where I was and what I would be doing, and I knew that they did not fully comprehend me, yet I still tried. I would attend my ESOL class all throughout the third grade, by the beginning of…

    John Krumboltz’s Happenstance Learning Theory discusses that human behavior is the result of different learning experiences made available by both planned and unplanned situations in which human beings find themselves. Since no one can know in advance the destiny or outcome of an individual’s decision, Krumboltz used the Happenstance Learning Theory as an attempt to explain why individuals follow certain career paths in life and how counselors can use this theory to guide their clients through this process. The Happenstance theory explains that every situation (planned or unplanned) is a potential opportunity for someone, as long as they are open and willing to capitalize on these moments. In my own life, I can look back and see where Happenstance…
