This report is split into two parts\u2026<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n

frameworks.<\/b> This can include discussions of limits to confidentiality, importance of boundaries, the needs of <\/div>\n
minority groups, multiculturalism, and individual differences. You should also discuss how these topics impact <\/span><\/div>\n

Word count: around 1000 +\/-10%\n<\/div>\n
Overall: Why are ethics so important in counselling? And make lots of references to theory and ethical framework, such as BACP.\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Part 2)\tConsists of Self-Evaluation:
\n<\/b><\/div>\n
A Relevant and brief introduction- why are you reflecting on your skills, how is this helpful to you?\n<\/div>\n
Make references to your observer feedback forms (attached as STUDENT COUNSELLING SKILLS FEEDBACK <\/div>\n
FORM) and include these in your appendices as a reference point.\n<\/div>\n
Highlight your knowledge of what counsellors working within various therapeutic approaches do (or do not do) <\/div>\n
within sessions, and what kind of counselling techniques counsellors use to facilitate therapeutic progress.\n<\/div>\n
A self-evaluation of your own development of the core counselling attributes and skills, such as contracting, <\/div>\n
creating a safe and secure base clarifying; focusing; confronting and challenging; using silence and summarising. This reflection should include comparing and contrasting skills and their potential application in practice.\n<\/div>\n
Evaluate your own ability to use counselling skills based on feedback sheets you received from peers (observers) during triad work.\n<\/div>\n
Word count: around 1500 +\/-10%\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Reflect upon interventions you used in the counsellor roles, be specific. Such as, open-ended questions, <\/div>\n
empathetic reflections etc, QUOTE yourself from the feedback forms you received… What did you say EXACTLY?\n<\/div>\n
Identify your strengths: e.g., good use of summarising and reflection of empathy to the clients.\n<\/div>\n
Identify your areas of improvement: for e.g., struggled in the moments of silence, or difficulty to paraphrasing relevant material etc.\n<\/div>\n
Tentative thoughts about what may have helped or hindered your skills (i.e., feeling anxious or self-conscious, uncomfortable working with someone of different genders etc.)\n<\/div>\n
–\tHave TRUST in your reflective abilities. YOU know YOURSELF and highlight interest in your personal and professional development!\n<\/div>\n
–\tDon\u2019t get lost in theory\u2026 It\u2019s important to reference it, but do not spend time describing theoretical concepts.\n<\/div>\n
–\tSummarise at the end \u2013 overall consider: How are you doing as a counsellor? Is there scope for personal growth, have you developed already?\n<\/div>\n
Write your reflective report from an \u2018I\u2019 perspective.
