Storytelling is crucial in an English class and can be incorporated into any novel you read. Analyzing literary devices in Great Expectations eased us into a routine of expressing our opinions of the characters. This assignment was a form of storytelling less obvious than just asking us for our view on the writing. While working on the Importance of Being Earnest, our assignment was to share a story of our opinions on each act. Responding to everyone else’s reactions on the act habituated us into sharing our arguments and agreements with each other.…

Pfeffer talked about how we think the world is just a place meaning thinking is if we do everything good and behave everything will work out for us. However it isn’t true which can be scary. In the real world things are not always fair. Power does fall into one’s lap, you have to work on it. You can obtain power by making the first move.…
The purpose of the cognitive restructuring theory is to identify as well as correct negative thinking patterns. This technique is used to alter negative automatic thoughts which may occur in an anxiety- provoking situation when someone feels that someone is thinking negative of them. Now the way this is done is by putting rational thoughts or beliefs within the person in order to make them think differently about the situation. Therefore, it helps them to handle their daily life and deal with all of their day to day issues such as anger, stress and anxiety. Furthermore, it helps them with their interpretation of the world around them and lives a productive life.…
7) I provide accurate information about confidentiality and its limits? I as the counsellor provided knowledge about relative confidentiality and the legal requirement of breaking confidentiality in areas of harm to self or others. I sought confirmation of understanding by asking client if they understood or had any questions regarding the matter to clarify any misunderstandings or confusion. To correct/improve I also would have took a few more minutes to explain further about confidentiality and provided more knowledge that information could also be shared if consent was given, or is court mandated to release records, or if child abuse or neglect was a concern. To further ensure client was fully informed I would of shared with them that the Winnipeg resource center does keep records in regards to drop in sessions.…

In his essay “Thought,” Louis H. Sullivan greatly stresses the importance of thinking critically and creatively, and presents the argument that one must think not in words but rather in images, rhythm, and other wordless forms of communication. Sullivan resorts heavily on comparisons and analogies and metaphors to convey the impractical usage of words. “But in passing I may say that real thinking is better done without words than with them, and creative thinking must be done without words,” Sullivan argues, and he goes on to explain the intellectual heft and rigor of thinking creatively and highlights its rewards. Sullivan also asserts that one must think in the present and the present alone, for his reasoning is that “you cannot in the past,…
Due to this and its very structured and planned system it is seen as a preferred method of counselling in health professions such as the NHS. However, more evidence does not essentially mean that it is a better form of therapy it just means that there is more to back it up. Another strength I feel that it has is that it focuses on the clients own individual thoughts and helps them to discover the misconceptions they are experiencing for themselves rather than someone else doing it for them. A weakness of cognitive therapy I feel is that in some ways it might not be as “in-depth” as some clients might require to deal with their problem(s) or issue(s) is a prosperous way. It also requires the client to be able to think abstractly, this may cause some problems as it means the client needs to be able to think about thinking.…
While both the Extended Short Course Essay and the Think Piece have their own respective advantages and disadvantages, I found that the Think Piece was more enjoyable to write. The biggest similarity between the Extended Short Course Essay and the Think Piece is the content. While the language, voice, and discourse varied between the pieces, the points that I made were relatively the same in both of the pieces. In both of the Extended Short Course Essay and the Think Piece I supported my points by using evidence that can be seen through specific TV shows. I still had to guide the audience through my thought processes in both of the pieces, so the usual conventions of writing stayed the same between the Extended Short Course Essay and the Think…

This time gave me an opportunity to undertake reflective listening through active listening which according to Rogers (1975) in his “client-centered” therapy argues that it encourages the client to share the information in more depth than if I was only asking directive questions. This enabled me to gain information when the client brought out the underlying issues including those that I had not thought about. The active listening also improved my relationship with the client since I was able to express acceptance by avoiding any expression of disagreement or judgement thus making him open up and also trust me as his couselor. This method also left me with enough time to explore and diagnose the issue thus noting the new ways of approach to the…
