Analysis of who you are as a counselor
PART 1 – Your Characteristics as a Counselor
The assignment should begin with an analysis of who you are as a counselor. Who you are will guide the type of approaches that you include in your clinical orientation. Chapter 2 of the text addresses counselor characteristics that may impact the approach a counselor uses. These include your values, the choices you make and how you define and confront problems.
• PART 2 – Your Pathway to Integration
Following the self-analysis, the chosen integrative pathway from Chapter 15 should be discussed. Begin by describing the details or your pathway. Why did you choose that pathway? What appeals to you about it?
• PART 3 – Your Clinical Orientation
Next, you will be addressing the approaches to therapy that appeal to you in formulating your clinical orientation and discuss why these would be best for you.
This becomes your clinical orientation. It is suggested that no more than three approaches be selected for this section in order to avoid mixing up of approaches and techniques, which can be confusing for you and for your client
