Week 1 response 3 and 4 Hey Amanda, I enjoyed reading your post and your attention to areas I otherwise may not have considered including religion. It would be very important to consider multiculturalism, bias, and what works best for the specific client. Thank you for making this note as I will be sure to be mindful of it in the future. Ace, Thanks for sharing your perspective concerning psychopharmacology. You highlighted many aspects of medication use in mental health that are imperative to practicing counseling.I was specifically interested in the cultural considerations highlighted and the need for counselors to be sensitive and aware of the client and their cultural backgrounds when determining if medication could serve as a treatment method. In addition to this factor of pharmacology, there is a stigma that surrounds treatment for mental illness with medication. Medicine although utilized as an intricate part of traditional care for patients is more controversial when discussing the treatment of mental disorders, as you also mentioned. Lastly, when a client and their family has concerns about the medication component of treatment, the counselor is responsible for addressing this matter. Ace, as you stated prescribing medication is not in our scope but to fully understand the holistic process of the care clients receive there is an understanding that we should possess to effectively serve. With this understanding we are enabled to coordinate care with excellence in collaboration with professionals throughout our field of practice. Ace, I look forward to corresponding with you throughout the quarter. Thanks
