At my graduate assistantship at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ), the graduate students from Monmouth were introduced to a few of the key offices that work with Residential Education and Housing. Through this introduction, I was able to meet Kelly Hennessy, who is the current Associate Dean of Students in the Department of Health and Wellness at The College of New Jersey. As a future Student Affairs professional, one of my end goals would ultimately become a Dean of Students, so it was exciting to interview Hennessy and see how she got to where she is today. Originally when Hennessy first started her college years, she thought that she wanted to be a teacher. After working with the professionals in her Residence Life Office and Leadership Office at the University of Buffalo, where she received both her bachelors and master’s degrees, she realized that her passion was no longer teaching, but rather to become the professionals she was surrounded and inspired by every day. Hennessy has worked in Residence Life for majority of her career up to about two years ago when the Department of Health and Wellness first started on TCNJ’s campus.

I believe my cumulative employment, education, and life experiences, as well as my passions, and vocational direction have uniquely gifted and prepared me to excel in the AGACNP program at South Carolina and to become a compassionate, skilled, servant to my city. I believe strongly in an incarnational and missiological modality of medicine as it relates to nursing, and I am confident that my skills, coupled with Carolina’s uniquely crafted program will enable me to serve a grossly under-served population, and further the field of advanced practice nursing through effective practice which utilizes the most current evidence to improve care. The homelessness of my father developed in me a strong passion for serving those in greatest need and

Description of duties consisted of providing therapeutic interventions to children, adolescents, and their families as it relates encouraging and facilitating positive developments within the client's functioning within their community, school and household environment. As the client is entered into the OPT/TSF program, the goal is for the client to remain in the community with less intensive services. Through the services, I observe the client's behaviors and become familiar with their referral provided by Delaware Division of Prevention and Behavioral Health. Once an assessment is completed, I develop a treatment plan which consist of long and short-term goals, objectives and interventions goals that would ensure the client's success within the OPT/TSF program.

There are several different kind of educational programs. We have classes on breastfeeding, diabetes management, tobacco cessation and substance abuse classes. We a have partners in the community, one is Baker Vision Care and the other is Coleman Podiatric services. The health department sponsors an Abstinence program, parenting classes and CPR/First Aid classes (Health, 2014).

These programs help patients begin recovery by healing relationships. Other than family support, treatment programs may also offer individualized care. This type of residential treatment tailors therapy to the individual's needs. Patients may get help through options such as: - 12-step recovery model - Educational guidance and life skills education - Group therapy and house meetings - Nutritional support and medical care - Stress management techniques and meditation Ongoing Support and

My internship at Damascus Outreach Association in Gates County, North Carolina where I worked five days a week for an average of thirty to forty hours a week, took place between May and August 2016. Established in 2008, Damascus Outreach Association is a 501c3 non-profit organization that has served over one hundred children and families through intensive academic tutoring enrichment, and mentoring activities (Damascus Outreach, 2016). It is considered the only free program available in Gates County that creates an environment where children from low-income families who are vulnerable to develop risky behaviors can engage in activities that help them develop into productive citizens and look at themselves as constructive members of the community. In order to serve children better in the community, the organization

2. The characteristics and backgrounds of the people served by this program are diverse populations, underserved, at-risk adolescents and delinquent juveniles between the ages of 11 and 18 including their families. These individuals lacked resources, were a challenge to help, and appeared unmotivated to change. A common factor these underserved populations held together were upon entrance to social services individuals expressed emotions of anger, hopelessness, and resistance to treatment.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a short-term, problem-centered therapy that is used to address psychopathology within the individual (Beck, 1995). This model of therapy is used to address issues of depression, anxiety, eating disorders, relational problems, and drug abuse, and can be utilized when working with individuals, as well as within group and family modalities. The core aspects of this therapy include collaboration and participation by the client, a strong alliance between therapist and client, and an initial focus on current problems and functioning (Beck, 1995). The theory of CBT emphasizes the relationship between the individual’s thoughts feelings and behaviors, which is seen as being the underlying cause of

In the past few years, community agencies have increasingly used groups since various groups have become a common feature of today's society. Some of the most common groups in today's society include groups for women, men, parent education, children, HIV/AIDS support, and those for reducing substance abuse. Due to the increased use of groups by communities, there are various approaches that have emerged including group counseling and group psychotherapy. Group counseling is a designed preventive and remedial approach to meet the needs of specific population in the society like women, men, the elderly, adolescents, and children. On the contrary, group psychotherapy is a re-education process of the present and past through conscious and unconscious awareness.

Group counseling not only allows for members to learn from their therapist, it also allows for them to learn from personal experiences of other members and to gain insights and ideas on the issues they are confronting. Group counseling also helps in improving social skills among the members as they are able to interact freely in and out of the group. This way members can be more confident and open to interactions during the sessions. Group therapy influences growth and change to those involved. Also, it increases their self-awareness and enables them to gain sustenance from each other. Group counseling is also favorable to the therapist as they are able to gain faster and more efficient results for their members by counseling them simultaneously rather than one at a time. Jacobs, Mason, Harvill and Schimmel (2012) describe group counseling
