When observing the first video, the initial reaction that I noticed, was the client being extremely nervous and anxious about sharing her feelings. The patient shared that she was angry, frustrated and as a result she was having chest pains. During the session, the patient keep using the word “it” to describe her emotions and the therapist suggested she use “I” when referring to her emotions and concerns. One of the interesting things about this session was the ability to incorporate the “Here and now” and the “empty chair technique” in this case the client was focusing on the importance of her agreement with her ex-husband in regards to the children. In this case having the client reverse roles allowed the client to realize that although her ex-husband was not spending enough time with the children, his love and care for them was still the same.

The therapist is trying to determine different methods and approaching the client with cautious, while incorporating sarcasm and humor to attain a positive results. In this case, the therapist continuously used the “here and now” interactions, his purpose was to ensure that the patient was continuously challenged, and humored. In the end, the therapist was empathetic to the patient’s reluctance in therapy. In conclusion, I have gained a lot of knowledge in regards to the “Here and now” as well as the “empty chair technique”. I found the empty chair technique to be a very cool and facilitating method. I feel that this technique brings the client into present experiences. The client will then be able to experience different aspects of their own conflicts by role playing this empty chair dialogue. I would definitely use this technique with my patients. I strongly feel that any approach that offers a new perspective to the client is a wonderful approach to

The evaluation is the final part of my three mandatory written pieces of my graded unit. The final evaluation stage of the graded unit requires me to reflect on how the activity went, whilst highlighting my strengths, areas that require future development and identify my weaknesses, this, in turn, will enable me to adapt my practice to ensure I am continuously supporting patients to the standards set within The Nursing Midwifery Council (NMC). Looking back on the activity, I am proud of myself for being able to plan and follow the activity through to complication. When completing the book with Mr X I found it to be an enjoyable activity that not only offered benefits to Mr X but also to myself, it allowed me to understand the importance of building a therapeutic relationship with a patient. Building a successful therapeutic relationship required me to have good communication and interpersonal skills, (Radcliffe and Ford, 2015), that allowed me to build a relationship with Mr X based on mutual trust and respect.
The assessment therapy helps Hoober gain more insight into the young adult’s mental state, behaviors, emotions, and history. Furthermore, attachment therapy is a therapy that Hoober values the most and is put into play when a counselor wants to understand the adult’s relationship with others (p. 439). On the other hand, Hoober uses person-centered therapy to facilitate the client’s personal growth. Person-centered therapy is when the counselor attempts to bring the client to reality about their experiences. When conducting structural family therapy, Hoober discloses how he barely works with children, although, when he does work with children, he is mostly conversing with the parents.

Abstract This paper focuses on person-centered therapy. Person-centered therapy is an approach to help individuals develop a sense of self. This therapy is different from others as the client is responsible for improving his own life, not the therapist. However, it is important for the therapist to create a conducive environment for the client so that the client feels safe and secure and will be at ease to share problems or issues during therapy sessions.
Putting the client as the expert, understanding her story instead of attempting to judge it, in the therapist’s point of view. The therapist must in any point display with utmost care, interest, respectful curiosity, openness, empathy, and fascination. Once this collaborative relationship has been established, the counsellor and the client can move forward and work on how to improve the outcomes of the

The plan will be targeting all cellular device usage, which includes playing games, texting, scrolling though social media sites, and finally listening to music. To prevent the client from using her phone during lectures, the behavioral plan instructed her professors to make her write an essay whenever she is using her phone.
Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall Therapists often face many ethical dilemmas in their therapeutic relationships with their clients. Countertransference is one ethical dilemma that is seen quite often in therapy and often goes unnoticed until the therapist becomes aware of this feeling. Countertransference is caused when the therapist begins to involve their own projections and feelings toward their client, or their clients ' situation that may potentially distort the way they perceive and react to their client in therapy (Corey, Corey, & Callanan, 2015, p.49). This sort of conflict often happens when the therapist begins to lose objectivity towards the client, causing their emotional reactions to become more intensified during therapy. These
