This consists of the; description, feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion and an action plan. (Mind tools, 2018) I will then discuss my own development alongside the BACP moral qualities and devise a SMART action plan to help support my role as a trainee counsellor. Description- is the start of the cycle and as mentioned previously it will be focused on the residential weekend which occurred just under two months into the counselling course. The whole course were required to be there due to it being part of the course criteria and it could be a valuable experience. The two tutors were there however, there were an additional two people who I had never met before. It was over several days and the weekend focused on self-awareness of ourselves. Upon arrival there was still no indication of what to expect which worried me. Over the weekend there was a lot of talking about feelings, activities using art and crafts and also getting to know the group more as a whole. The result of the weekend was mixed, some sessions were enjoyable others emotions were shown that I was uncomfortable with. Feelings- the residential weekend was something I was aware of and tried to prepare mentally for it. Looking back the fear of the unknown was at the forefront of my thoughts. I was constantly overthinking what was going to

    I would leave room for her to tell me more about that. I would have used the sessions in the beginning to solidify a therapeutic relationship and environment, reflecting feeling and meaning to ensure that she felt heard and understood. I also would have spent a great deal listening to her so that I had the chance to gather more information about my client and her worldview. I would have worked with to established clear goals for our counseling sessions. If I felt it was appropriate, I would have offered to provide a safe space for her to meet with her family in my office, if she expressed wanting to find ways to explain to her family her feelings.

    English 102 through the Alabama Early College Program has taught me the importance of writing skills. When I first began online classes for English, I quickly started learning techniques that I needed to keep up throughout the semester. Each assignment and essay is due at midnight, therefore starting or finishing an assignment early allows the writer enough time to turn in the assignment. Throughout the five modules, I have learned how to write an argument and rhetorical analysis, conduct research and write an exploratory essay. In each module, I learned writing techniques and skills that I never knew before.

    I have informed my mentor about Mrs. A’s concerns and she was given comprehensive information about the support groups and organisations that are there to help her and her family during her admission (NICE, 2011). Besides, providing therapeutic communication to encourage the patient to give consent to the admission is an act of beneficence because it prevents causing harms and improves the patient’s wellbeing (Edwards, 2009). It was a good experience for me since I have learned the importance of communication as one of the fundamental aspects in nursing (Balzer Riley, 2000). I have learned that therapeutic communication works wonders. I was complimented by my mentor who boosted my confidence and encouraged me to continue doing better since provision of reassurance and honest compliment from the preceptor is a foundation for student development and independence (Ingwerson, 2014).

    Through both learning experiences, the clients were sedated, therefore minimizing the interactions that I was able to have with them. In saying this, the main reason that I went into the nursing profession was because I love working with individuals and their families and improving their day-to-day lives. I found that in both of these areas you don’t necessarily get to do that in the same context as you would on some of the other units. This was a positive and eye opening experience for me, as it reinforced my “why” in coming into the nursing program and also allowed me insight into areas that might be more of interest to

All my classmates and I were looking forward to meet our instructor because since we started the classes we felt somewhat lost by not having clearly defined our situation with classes and teachers.
