PHILOSOPHY of COUNSELING

Clinical psychology focus SE on the intellectual, emotional, biological, psychological, social, and behavioral aspect s of serviceman injunction across the life span, in varying cultures, and at whole socioeconomic I bevel (Todd & Aboard, 1999, peg. 5). In my philosophy I do call back this to be true among other things. I recollect the record to be my main source of truth. View of Human Nature With any philosophy we remove to start at the beginning of the nature of people and their disorders. wherefore be people the charge they ar? Is it nature or nurture?I believe we do non s tart out as a blank slate. We are all born with specialized genes and attri neverthelesses that are unique to us. We are all individuals unique in our take trends. However our experiences get along and SSH ape us for good or for bad. Think about life as a poker game and in your hand are the tease you collapse been dealt. You were given the cards and how you play the game or your experiences d determine the outcome. devotion and values are not subjective sets of ideas that vary from p re boob to person, or even culture to culture.Rather, they are determined by Some angiotensin-converting enzyme who is to a higher place e the created realm and gives them to all whom are created. This Someone gives you the cards. Without being given these basic values and morals utter chaos would reign in the world. In t he Bible Jesus says For out of the watch come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, the bets, false witness, slanders. (Matthew 1 519, NASA) This obviously points to the fact that our he liberal arts are the central problem in addressing the behaviors and actions of our lives. In the Bi blew we also get a clear picture of the condition of the serviceman being.Romans 323 says All have sinned and fall short of the glory of matinee idol (NASA). The logical implication is that one who has s mined (defined as a thought, action upon a thought, or behavior that is against the character ND perfection of matinee idols character) is called a s home(a). Because we have all sinned we sens not ex prurience the life God intended us to live. Our sin separates us from God and tbiddyce is the r 80th issue in our lives. Not every struggle is a outgrowth of personal sin though. If a client were ABA seed, traumatized, rejected, neglected, etc. The sin is not theirs but the results of soul elses sin plays out in their life. Many people make counseling because of the sins of others, entrust their own. Our behaviors and actions flow directly from our sinful thoughts, actions, and series. If someone were to live their life on a deserted island and never have any human contact they would close up have the propensity and desire to be greedy, lustful, prideful, and o there things that go directly against the character of God. Society and our environment do not diet ermine our actions as much as our own inward distorted desires.The root issue is a heart problem m, not one of needing just a behavioral adjustment to correct the actions. When clients co me to counseling because they are struggling with something that is a result of someone elses sin the direction and Ochs is still on their need for a Savior to give them the inner ability to have the e strength, patience, forgiveness, and healing to move forward in their life. Therapist/ leaf node Relationship My role as a therapist, is to lift the fallen, impact the broken, and to heal the h rutting. Am not there to judge or pick sides. We were created for bloods. In order for a therapist to have the type of relationship with the client that allows them to challenge the client they need to be perceived as open, attentive, willing to be challenged, a listener, fair, friend lye, firm, and trusting. A great client/ advocate relationship is not totally essential to change occurring in the life of a client, but it is very important. I should be able to empathic with the client, con th em coping mechanisms, and offer a different perspective or insight as to what the e issue might be.The client should not rely on me solely as the fix all to any problem. The there pips assists the client in identifying nonadaptive beliefs. The counselor also discovers alternate dive rules for living for the client. The therapist acts as the informer and teaches new abilities and skills to the client. The client understands their problem better and practice changing self defeating ways, such as, acting and thinking. In this way, it is important to maintain a truthful, secure, confident relationship among the client and the helper to be effective.The essential o documental is for change to occur the change could be an environmental change, specific behave viral change, change in thinking identifying and awareness. Strengths and Weaknesses as a Therapist homogeneous to think Im good at seeing the big picture. If you are able to take a step back and look at life this way you dont worry about trivial things as much because you hen realize that they dont matter in the big scheme of things. As a therapist could thusly be a blew to help teach my clients to do the same. Would teach them to focus on the big picture rather t Han trivial details.One thing that I will have to work on is not magnanimous advice. My friends come to me for advice right now and its really hard to break that habit. Ive started to take myself oh t of the agency and offer guidelines that could help them in the patch because dont wan t them to depend on me and the same goes for my future clients. I want to be a mating and Fame Ii Therapist and Im not married, nor do I have a family of my own. Some people could see this as a problem because I dont endure specifically know the situation.However do empathic with people and can relate to them in other areas. I would also explain to them then that even if I were married I still wouldnt know the exact situation because every situation is diff erent and unique to that individual. Conclusion My philosophy of counseling beings with the fact that all of humanity has intro NCSC value. The ideal counseling situation would be one where a client is able to see a love Eng relationship dolled between the counselor and the client in such a way that they being t o desire to know more about God.PHILOSOPHY of directionClinical psychology focus SE on the intellectual, emotional, biological, psychological, social, and behavioral aspect s of human injunction across the life span, in varying cultures, and at all socioeconomic I bevel (Todd & Aboard, 1999, peg. 5).
