Day Residential Leaders

As a professional school counselor, it's important to be competent in the profession that you're in and also abiding the code of ethics. I went to my state of Georgia's board of education website for school counselors, and I can upon a case dated back in 2006 that had something to do with a school counselor who was found to be incompetent in her profession. In the case of Julett Carnahan vs Butts County board of education, one of the reasons the board decided to discipline Carnahan was because they found her to incompetent as a school counselor. The case also stated the superintendent presented evidence that other faculty members did not believe her at all as a school counselor. Other evidence shows that she failed to meet with one student for a couple of days after being referred by someone, and it required consultation within 24 hours which is also an ethical violation (Julett Carnahan vs Butts County Board of Education, 2006).

Not feeling judged or criticised by the counsellor or that the counsellor is likely to not accept you if you share something ‘bad’

As the standards of the counseling profession are continuously being shaped, I desire to play a role in the educating

Counseling supervision, the ethical and legal issues, and the multiple relationships that result is a dynamic topic that presents numerous complex issues. The important functions of the supervisory relationship are to teach counseling through a hands-on process, assess, inform, implement, and evaluate the application of theories, ethical and competent practices to prepare the supervisee for their future profession in the counseling field. However, while supervisors play multiple roles in the supervision process, there are situations and times when the boundaries between therapy and supervision are not always clear. During the supervisory relationship it is vital and of the upmost importance that the supervisor model’s ethical behavior and implements the ethical standards of the counseling profession.

Counsellors are required to have adequate training and supervision to help maintain them throughout their professional lives. Counsellor must be respectful of their professional position and remain loyal to their clients.

Professionalism is one of the most important aspects of counseling. Lacking professionalism may potentially cause harm to the client. In my opinion, professionalism begins and ends with the code of ethics. I feel that if you abide by the code of ethics you have nothing worry about regarding professionalism. The code of ethics summarizes the standards of integrity, professionalism, and confidentiality. A counselor is supposed to abide by the legal and moral standards of the community (Grold, 1996). All professionals should dress

I came to Tarleton as a scared freshman who barely knew anyone on campus. The first person that I got to connect with was my Residential Leader. She let me know that no matter what was going on she would always be there for me as a friend and a mentor. When I first came here I decided I wouldn’t try to be an RL that I would just try to be a TTM. Now that I have this awesome relationship with my RL I want to become that for someone else. She was there for me when I was laughing and she was there for me when I was crying. She is one of the reasons that I didn’t drop out as a freshman.

The beginning section of the book describes the challenges counselors face in dealing with clients. (1). Moving from Two Areas of Competence to Three (2). Blurred Personal-Professional Distinctions (3).Expanded Definitions of Training (4). Confronting Dominant Views of Mental Health (5). Establishing a Scientific Base (6). Defining Relevant Ethical Standards (McMinn, 2011). After mapping out the challenges facing interdisciplinary integration, McMinn first divides his renowned book into eight rewarding chapters including summary and reflection following each of them. He also uses vignettes in order to ask his readers”What if this Happens” scenarios (McMinn, 2011)

In Act IV of the play, “Macbeth,” William Shakespeare writes about the ambitions of men and the trust given to others. Shakespeare begins the play in Scotland, where Macbeth is worried about the future of his rule, while in England Macduff is trying to persuade the late king’s son, Malcolm, to fight back against Macbeth. The first complication is that Macbeth is worried about his future rule as king, so he decides to pay a visit to the witches who offer him their advice. When the witches reveal that Macbeth has nothing to worry about, he is relieved, however he decides to take extra precautions and wants to kill anyone that stands in his way, which in turn, shows the ambition and strive that Macbeth has. He later finds out that Macduff, has

The Landlady by Roald Dahl unveils a valuable theme through mysterious and disturbing occurrences. The integrity and truthfulness of a person are difficult to uncover. They hide behind fake identities, masks which alter the beliefs of others. Despite the difficulty to realize one's’ authentic self, it is important to be alert and to notice clues in order to depict their personality or to predict situations. This is proven by the first encounter between the main character and the Landlady, the Landlady's behaviour and the evidence within the bed and breakfast guestbook. Therefore, the theme of The Landlady is to not be too trusting or unwary and to be perceptive.

Also with regards to therapy for the counselor, it might be beneficial for a colleague to sit in on some sessions with the therapist to make sure their issues aren’t affecting their counseling. It can never hurt to get feedback and other perspectives, especially if the therapist is struggling with personal or professional issues.

Recognizing hazards in the workplace and setting clear boundaries initially and maintaining them throughout therapy will go a long ways in a therapist “keeping their sanity” intact. It is better to be proactive than reactive in this respect and dismiss the notion that “Boundary issues or countertransference issues won’t affect me.” “Those who understand the etiology and impact of these liabilities are most effective in minimizing their negative consequences, and thus more successfully “leave it at the office” at the end of a long workday” (Norcross & Guy, 2007, p. 36). I believe that all counselors will carry pieces of their clients with them at all times, but remaining aware of the risks and dangers associated with our specific occupation will allow counselors not to be affected as

Supervision theories and practices began emerging as soon as counsellors started to train other counsellors (Bernard & Goodyear, 2009). Several different theoretical models have developed to clarify and support counselling supervision. The focus of early models of supervision had generally been based on counselling theories (such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Adlerian or client-centred), but these orientation-specific models have begun to be challenged as supervision has many characteristics that are different to counselling. Competency as a counsellor does not automatically translate into competency as a supervisor, and when supervisee/supervisor orientations differ, conflicts may arise (Falender &

The spiritual core of Confucianism is the eternal human values. However, on this it may be objected that all more or less significant spiritual currents in one way or another have always been associated with these values. To this, there is the following answer: a pledge of eternal Confucianism was able to express those values in the most accessible, the most common and the indisputable form. Moreover, the author believes that it is necessary to speak about eternity. Set up in the Confucian way the observer immediately noticed that of the two, as it were by the nature bestowed more than "natural" communities - the family and the state - is a much more stable family, and because it pushed all Confucius and his followers on the main
