Oscar,

I have to say that I chuckled when I read, "I've done everything in the mental health field except prescribe medication; you name it: case manager, psychotherapist, administrator, clinical supervisor." You are quite an interesting person Oscar. winking I have to say your previous employment was quite a surprise to me. I'm a little taken back. I'm usually a perceptive person, but you really got me this time. (he, he.) By no means am I saying that you wouldn't be the best of therapists. It just really caught me off guard, but in a good way. I look forward to learning more. Well, it will be nice having a therapist in our group (LOL). What kind of group therapy should we try?

I'm sorry that you are feeling lonely tonight and I

    Personal Narrative: Bring Me Hope Club

    Seated on the plane to Beijing, I was thinking all the way on what I did through the past year. My mind went back to the time when my friends and I worked together for Chinese orphans by creating a club. With 100 dollars from donation, I asked several classmates to help me set up a club called ‘Bring Me Hope Club’ to cooperate with a global NGO: Bring Me Hope, to raise money for Chinese orphans and build long-term personal one-to-one relationships with them.…

    Collaborative Therapeutic Change: Narrative Therapy

    Narrative therapy is essentially a collaborative approach to facilitating therapeutic change. However, skillful expert therapists like Michael White in certain instances seem to be quite directive in the leading questions that they ask and appear to contribute more than 50% to the re-authoring of clients lives and their scripts about how to manage problems. This discrepancy between the avowed collaborative non-directive therapeutic positioning of the therapists on the one hand and the skillful leading approach to therapeutic questioning on the other deserves some clarification.…

    Personal Narrative: Recovery Class

    To all the doctors, teachers, peers, and family members who didn’t believe I would amount to greatness, thank you. When I was young, I didn’t understand why school seemed more challenging for me than it did for everyone else. I couldn’t discern why I was unable to distinguish my right from my left no matter how many times my teacher sighed and told me it was simple or why I could complete math problems perfectly then copy my answer wrong between the work area and the answer line.…

    Personal Narrative-Therapeutic Analysis

    A few years ago, I have decided to go to my health professional and have my numbers checked. Although my numbers still fall in the "normal" range, they're still low for someone my age.

I always feel tired, anxious, and unsatisfied of my body.…

    Personal Narrative: The Fear Of Falling Apart

    “The fear of falling apart”, “Words are knives and often leave scars”, and “Don’t try to sleep through the end of the world and bury me alive. Cause’ I won’t give up without a fight” by Panic! At The Disco from their song This is Gospel is very important to me because it’s like saying no matter how hard you push and pull on me I won’t give up and that’s really encouraging to me. The way I can apply it to my life is I was bullied, cursed at, and yelled at all throughout middle school by other students and no matter how hard I wanted to give up and just crawl into bed and say “No, go away.”…

    Narrative Therapy Paper

    The main aim of narrative therapy is to re-examine these stories and begin to question different aspects of the narrative in order to widen its perspective and integrate different realities. The narrative therapist looks for exceptions to the client’s narrative and highlights the moments that are in conflict with the client’s prevailing discourse (Corey, 2009). Posing questions is a central method of prompting the client to look for aberrations from the overriding narrative in order to examine the circumstances surrounding those particular moments. Drawing attention to the exceptions to the client’s storyline might include the emotions, thoughts, and details surrounding that specific instance (Payne, 2006). According the narrative approach, adding context and exceptions to the story combined with creating a new narrative allows the client to open up new life options and ways of living (Richert, 2010).…

    Personal Narrative: The Sickness

    The sickness that I live with is one that some would find excessively appalling, making it impossible to talk about; so I kept it to a whisper. This sickness I thought was to embarrassing to talk about, making it impossible to seek help, left me feeling alone in the dark. This sickness ruined friendships, without me realizing it. This sickness that made getting out of bed a struggle for me. This sickness made it impossible for me to see a positive future, until the day I stopped calling myself “crazy” and began to grow from what we all call, depression.…
