1-9, What Is Your Level Of Guilt In Your Husband Breaking His Leg?

How do you think did this experience affected you emotionally and how did it change your behaviour in any way?

Most of my professional life to date has focused on working with people with disabilities and in helping them identify and achieve their goals. As an occupational therapist, I had coursework in psychology, but no formal training in counseling. My ability to help my patients reach their highest potential really depended on my professional relationship, or what as therapists we referred to as “therapeutic use of self”. I certainly learned and used specific techniques and assessments over the years to help me achieve better outcomes, but never identified with any specific theory as the framework of my interactions. I recognize there were times when my personality and my skills were a great match and other times when I felt like I just couldn’t figure out the right approach. Thankfully for much of my career, I worked with an interdisciplinary team that included some very skilled psychologists, so I always had the ability to consult.

Family Therapy can be implemented in a different ways in a program that provides a facet of services, but it’s imperative that the approaches used are appropriate for the individual or families utilizing services. Functional Family Therapy is used to help deal with substance abuse in families but can also be used to assist with behavioral issues in children. A well rounded family service program can not only use this one approach but utilize other approaches to meet the needs of the population being served. And while implementing the service ethics will play a major role in the therapy being providing.

Ever since I was a child, people always asked me what I would like to be when I grew up. At first, I would always say that I wanted to become an engineer because of my love for hands-on learning and my exceptional problem-solving skills. However, when I grew older I found that similar spark of fascination in the medical field. I wanted to go into a profession where I could help others and use my love for problem solving and hands-on interest. This is when I became interested in occupational therapy and fell in love with the profession. Occupational therapy has several elements I find passion in such as, the ability to be hands on and help change other people’s lives in a positive manner. My goal in life is to become an occupational therapist and help others live independent lives again. As I work to obtain this goal, I am doing many things such as strengthening my writing skills because this major involves many various aspects of writing. To succeed in this field, one needs to be able to write strong research-based papers and cite all sources correctly. I am striving to master these skills in hopes that I can succeed in and accomplish my academic goals.

Growing up, I have been an individual who has pushed myself beyond the minimum requirements in order to succeed. In high school I excelled in both academics and athletics. I graduated in the top 10% of my class and lettered in hockey and tennis my sophomore, junior, and senior year. I worked hard and put in extra time in order to set myself apart from others. Succeeding in both school and athletics made me a responsible, reliable, and an organized individual. These experiences made me a versatile individual and have given me a work ethic that has benefited me with my academics in college and with my work and volunteer experiences.

Betty Parris’s considerable power throughout the first act is observed by her ability to single-handedly initiate chaos and hysteria within the town for her own personal benefit. This power is first witnessed following Susanna Walcott’s explanation concerning the possibility of a supernatural cause to Betty’s illness, leading Abigail to advise her Uncle about “the rumor of witchcraft [that] is all about: [She] thinks [he'd] best go down and deny it [himself]. The parlor’s packed with people, sir” (10). This is the first hint that others in the town believe in the presence and of the beginnings of the hysteria that follows. Betty started this rumor in the town by pretending to act sick so that she would not get punished for dancing in the woods.

If I could have my ideal future, I think it would be what people consider the American dream. Meaning a husband, children and a stable job, in my case a therapist. Although the American dream is much more than that, those are some pretty basic aspects of it. I think everyone strives to have those things I listed, but in terms of how those things will help me here at Georgia College and in my future goals the only one that really fits is my hope of having a job as a therapist.

a. In therapy Jane learned that Recovery isn’t going to happen all at once. With that she understands that there will ups and down in her recovery but she know that as long as she stays strong she can stay on the path of recovery

Betty in the beginning of the play was sick and unable to move. Her father, Reverend Parris, was starting to go crazy because his little daughter was sick: “Then he weeps, then prays

I was at ease because I was in the best hands when my father sat me up on a table to wrap my sprained ankle after a reckless fall in gymnastics. He lectured me while handing me crutches and pulling me back onto my feet. “You have to take it easy until it heals,” he said as he continued to demonstrate how to properly apply my own bandages, ice my ankle and safely walk. This occurrence was not something new to me. Growing up, I was often inspired by the struggles my father underwent as an Asian immigrant fighting to open his own primary care clinic in America. However this gave me the freedom to interact directly with patients to educated people on how to promote their health and the steps to take in order to recover and return to their original lifestyles. My father’s influence and tenacious work ethic instilled in me the dedication to provide the best care possible throughout all my experiences and cultivated my desire to become an occupational therapist.

I have always been interested in a career in the care industry and, after meeting with an experienced occupational therapist, I was sure that occupational therapy is a career suited to my personality and abilities. I am excited by the diverse nature of the work and the effect that meaningful activity can have in helping individuals improve their quality of life and achieve personal goals. My interest was confirmed by my experience of the work that occupational therapists do. I was able to spend time shadowing individuals from a team of paediatric occupational therapists on several occasions.

REPORTER: The reporter/ Therapist (Felissa) called with concerns for the victim, Kalise. The reporter called to report lustful touching and possible physical abuse. According the reporter, in August of 2015, the child told her mother (Shanna) and grandmother (Chaundra), “J touched me, he pulled my diaper, he tore my gown’. They attempted to ask her more questions and she said “I don’t want to talk about it”. The reporter said the grandmother stated that the child didn’t want them to pull her bottoms down when she returned home. The incident took place at Jeremy’s (Father) home on 8/02/2015. The incident was reported to DHS in August of 2015, but there was not anything done about, per reporter. The child received a medical examination, and

Giving to the world is a rewarding experience; my effort and dedication towards bettering the world reciprocates and molds me into a better person. Circle K International (CKI), a community service organization, grounded me and revitalized my sense of purpose when I was unfamiliar with the college dynamics and undecided on my career and academic goals. Fully embracing the club’s motto, “live to serve, love to serve,” I worked alongside fellow board members and led a large team of volunteers as the Single Service Co-Chair to create an affordable, but festive and educational Halloween night for children in Davis. Academically, I declared my major in Biological Sciences with an emphasis on Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior and later double majored in Psychology after finding myself drawn to the human mind and its connection to behavior and action.

     Today many people seek professional therapy or counseling for a limited amount of time in order to deal with different life crises. Others seek professional help for the majority of their lives in order to deal with a psychological disorder. After reading this chapter on Therapy, I learned that this was not always the case, and that the way our society views therapy, and the meaning of therapy, has changed dramatically of the years. This chapter not only explains the evolution of therapy, it explores the different therapeutic approaches.
