The counseling session with my volunteer client began with an opening statement and informed consent. Also, I conducted a 21-minute interview with my volunteer "client." The session includes the mini-mental status exam (MMSE) authored by Kurlowicz & Wallace (1999) due to my client's age. After the MMSE assessment, I asked my client an open-ended question and continued to apply my counseling skills. I closed the session with a summary. However, I ran over the allotted 15 minutes.

In this chapter, different approaches to counseling were addressed. Of the five approaches, person-centered stood out to me the most. In person-centered counseling, “the counselor is most often interested in focusing on the meaning and feelings of the client; the actual facts of the problem are considered less important” (p. 397).
