Therapeutic relationship

a strong therapeutic alliance with our client therapy is not likely to be successful (Laureate Education, Inc., 2012). The first time that you are in contact with the client the helping relationship begins. I believe that a counselor should be ready to start helping the client at that very second. The helping relationship is the cornerstone on which all effective helping rest (Capuzzi et al., 2016). I believe that being warm to others is one of my strengths when developing a therapeutic alliance…

may need to process changes in their relationships, whether they are changes that they are in control of or that someone else in their life is making. Changes in any relationship can be difficult, but when you factor in multiple relationships, particularly when considering polyamory which completely leaves the mononormative framework of a partnered couple, the complexity deepens. Additionally, those embarking on a CNM relationship or new to a CNM relationship may need support while they try to…

“Music has power – especially for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.” (AFA Website 2016). Alzheimer’s disease is an irreversible neurodegenerative condition (that deteriorates significantly over time) of a patient’s memory and daily bodily functions. Since humans are living longer and our older population is increasingly getting larger there are more and more people suffering from Alzheimer’s than ever before. There are currently over 5.4 million Americans suffering…

After researching certain organizations throughout the many roles within the pharmaceutical field, I had never realized all the options as a student that I have. Though I still do not know what I want to do as a pharmacist, I did find a couple professional organizations in which I would fit in well. In fact there is one in particular that I thoroughly enjoyed after researching about which is the pediatric pharmacy association also known as PPAG. Before doing this research I had never heard of…

  "(...) Daisy, who was sitting frightened but graceful,  on the edge of a stiff chair."   Then there is Gatsby,  who is so conscious of his appearance,  that he almost knocks over the clock.  Again the reader is presented with evidence of nervousness and awkwardness,  as it is very common behaviour to be rather clumsy when one is unsure of ones self,  due to the presence of a person one is attracted to.  After this small incident Gatsby also…

In summary, the article is about educating teenage kids, sons and daughters, about sex, relationships, and safety. When a daughter is asked out by a boy for dinner, the parents get concerned about the relationship and get overprotective, taking extreme measures to ensure their child doesn’t do harm or offense towards their own child and their families. “Here’s the thing -- thoughts are not equal to actions ... Rationalizing that young men have overwhelming urges that cloud their judgment and…

Greenfeld says that we try to “survive” the conversation, and with that thinking we are never going to make closer relationships. With this logic, we are going to “learn” events to simply make it through awkward small talk rather than make connections. We need to be able to make these connections and while cultural literacy can be the first step to talking to people,…

We are here to talk about James Kofi Annan. I am going to describe James when he was a child slave and what he does now. James Kofi Annan was a child slave but was able to escape slavery and now he works to fight against child slavery. James had a horrible childhood as a child slave. “James’s father had sold James top the fisherman, James was now a child slave” James now works for the fisherman's but he has to work for free. Another reason his childhood was terrible as a child slave is…

Friends and family tend to get involved at the point, being concerned with meeting the significant other, wanting to get to know that person, so on and so forth, that the stress of actually being in a relationship continues to build. Once…
