    Since I was first accepted into the graduate clinical mental health counseling program, I highly anticipated my first experience of actual counseling. I never expected the difficulties I would face upon my first encounter counseling a client. With my client unaware of the reason for being referred to me, asking “what brings you in here today?” turned out to be the wrong question to ask. The more appropriate way initiating a counseling relationship begins with introductions and obtaining background information from the client increasing the trust level between client and the counselor. During the session, I detected my “machine gun questions” meaning I never provided my client adequate time to respond before I asked another question; as a result,…

    In matching Janet’s posture, language and tone, I reflected back to Janet her external behaviours. When I commented to Janet “and because you know that at the base of it’s not you it’s him” I put into my words her thoughts regarding his behaviour. Janet’s response of “well that’s the thing, I don’t let it affect me anymore…” allowed her to then explore why her reactions to her ex-husband had changed. I found this skill of counselling particularly difficult in this session due to our friendship.…

    It is unclear in this case if the counselor obtained consent to share information with the father or the extent to which information was allowed to be shared. The client has the right to place limits of the amount of confidential information she wants shared with her father (Koocher & Keith-Spiegel, 2008). If consent was obtained, the counselor did not breach confidentiality by sharing information with the father, however, she acted unethically by not considering how this accusation could harm the father, who was also her client. As her client, the father has the same rights as his daughter.…

    Less than one third of individuals who experience psychological distress seek help from a mental health professional (Andrews, Issakidis & Carter, 2001). It has come to my realization that more individuals seek mood regulating medication for temporary relief from their feelings than those who seek therapeutic help to explore the cause of their distress. I am by no means suggesting that medication is the wrong way, medication can be used when there is evidence of a chemical imbalance contributing to such psychological distress. As the world continues to develop and new issues begin to surface, more people should consider taking steps to counseling rather than medication which only helps with a quarter of the issues, if any in some cases. The…

    It is in this session that I helped the client to focus on the wider issues around the problem. This I achieved through challenging the client positively by asking him if he thought whether the situation would still have ended the same way it was if he did things differently. I also inquired whether he thought there were reasons that made the individual behave the way she did. These questions also allowed my client to express his emotions regarding the situation which would be helpful for him since he would be able to release the tension he had concerning the situations. This was through talking about the thoughts and the feelings he had stored in his mind.…

    In this assignment I will look at Rogers’ s six conditions and why they are considered necessary and sufficient for therapeutic change. I will also consider the implications of this theory for counsellor education. After a short amount of time studying Person Centred Counselling the understanding of how the six conditions are necessary and sufficient is starting to emerge and become a real part of my conscious actions and way of being. Each of the six conditions come with their own difficulties as a student counsellor and although we may use empathy and listening skills in our day to day life, until we look more closely, we do not appreciate how we are often in life, and our relationships, not actually listening or being empathetic when…
