764 Words4 Pages

Jane Doe was familiar with this theory because she took undergrad classes that discussed strength perspective material. I asked Jane Doe what strengths did she think she possess that other family members may not have? She replied with” I think a strength I bring to my family is finding resources. Working at this job has allowed me learn how to find resources for others and I’ve learned to apply these skills at home. Whenever my family needs to find something that may help with stability, they always ask me and it makes me feel good to help. I am not good at surviving a storm but after the storm I can provide you with lots of resources.” In contrast I asked Jane doe about her environmental struggles. Seemingly she is a great at finding resources for herself and others around her but I wanted to know her weaknesses as well. She replied with” I am codependent on my sister.

Jane Doe expressed during the interview that she feels she is dragging her feet with making a decision about going to grad school. She graduated from Valdosta State University in 2012 with a degree in Psychology. She explained that she has always known she would have to further her education because of limited job opportunities with a BA in psychology. She said “My current struggle is debating on what I want to do. I want to know if I would like to go down the social work path like you or should I choose to find a program for counseling and become a LPC. I think I am intimidated by the process because I graduated so long ago and it looks weird. I could have my masters and licensed by now if I went to grad school after graduating but instead I chose to sit out and sitting out became 3 years without a clue to what I want to do

    Strength: Strength is a huge component in society as in at the Central Minnesota Credit Union. Having everyone come together and know what is going on and having great leaders is powerful. To me the strength does not just come from one person it comes from everyone and who ever contributes will make the credit union stronger. One way to make the credit union stronger is to tell others about it and to make it become larger. In this case the more the better and it helps out everyone.

    A little over two years ago, I started working as a Community Support Individual for Pathways Transition Programs LLC. My primary responsibility is to teach children various coping skills to manage their behavior, I have determined that I want to be able to address the emotions behind the behaviors. My desire is to be able to help the children I work with come to terms with their past histories so they can move on in their lives towards adoption and other positive outcomes. Sometimes, the children are still going through issues such as, on-going traumas, the lost of a parent due to death or incarceration, etc and I would like to develop the skill set to be able to address these issues. I see pursuing my degree through Argosy University as being the next step to take in order to develop a competency in counseling.

    I feel that my education at the University of North Texas has prepared me for a career in social work because it gave me opportunities to branch out of my comfort zone and become familiar with multiple populations of people. Before entering the BSW Program at UNT I was set on working with the geriatric population. I had worked with geriatrics before and was very comfortable with them, forming connections was easy, and I felt this was the population I was meant to be working with. Once I was accepted into the program though I learned that just because I had experience and was comfortable working with this specific population, it didn’t mean I had to continue working with them. My professors provided us with many opportunities to learn about and become familiar with many different populations.
