Download or read book Counselor Trainees Perceptions of Their Personal Growth A Qualitative Inquiry written by Ericka L. Souders and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Participants were asked in two interviews to share detailed experiences from their lives that contributed to their developing personal skills and characteristics. Their life stories were explored to gain understanding about their self perceptions and the events that have shaped them. Phenomenological methodology revealed two universal themes that emerged from participants' experiences. Participants discussed their experiences in graduate counselor training that contributed to their personal growth and development that included relationships with their colleagues and faculty and aspects within their internship/practicum. Participants also discussed factors that contributed to their development out of training including personal challenges, supportive events, and experiences with diverse groups. Implications for counselor educators, supervisors, and counselors in training are discussed based on the participants' experiences and life stories. Limitations of this study and recommendations for future research regarding counselor trainee personal growth and development are also discussed.

Book The Relationship Between Counselor Trainees  Personal Therapy Experiences and Client Outcome

This book was released on 2015 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on mental health professionals’ use of personal psychotherapy indicates that a majority of practitioners have participated in their own personal therapy for both personal and professional reasons (Bike, Norcross, & Schatz, 2009; Norcross & Connor, 2005). Psychotherapists typically suggest that engaging in their own personal therapy has aided in their professional development and clinical effectiveness in their work with clients (Orlinsky, Norcross, Ronnestad, & Wiseman, 2005); however, researchers have been unable to conclude that such evidence exists (Clark, 1986; Greenberg & Staller, 1981; Macaskill, 1988; Macran & Shapiro, 1998; Orlinsky, Norcross et al., 2005). Studies often included psychotherapists already established in their careers where levels of experience may have influenced their performance and/or subjective reflections of the benefits of personal therapy (PT) experience. One reason past studies are inconclusive is that the methods employed lacked the capabilities of current statistical techniques to detect small effects. Additionally, client outcome was measured in a variety of ways including supervisor ratings of therapist effectiveness, client reports of satisfaction levels, and client termination patterns. The current study addresses these problems by using a counselor trainee population (i.e., to control for levels of experience), more sophisticated methods (i.e., growth curve analyses capable of examining both the amount and rate of change), and advanced measures of outcome (i.e., repeated measures of client psychological distress designed to identify clinically significant change) to explore the relationship between counselor trainees’ personal therapy experiences and client outcome. Thirty counselor trainees completed a counselor information questionnaire regarding their experiences in personal therapy. Client outcome data from participating counselor trainees were obtained from archival measures of psychological distress. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM; Raudenbush & Bryk, 2002) was used to analyze client growth trajectories to predict relationships between counselor trainee PT experiences and reductions in client psychological distress. Results indicated that counselor trainee PT experience was associated with the rate at which clients reported changes in psychological distress over the course of therapy. That is, clients of counselor trainees who reported PT experience showed faster rates of distress reduction compared to clients of counselor trainees who denied PT experience. Moreover, group differences in client distress levels over the course of therapy were found to be greater for clients who met with trainees who reported experience in personal therapy compared to clients who met with trainees who reported no PT experience. Additionally, counselor trainees identified if PT experiences occurred during graduate training. Results indicated that clients of counselor trainees who participated in personal therapy during their graduate training reduced distress more quickly than clients of counselor trainees indicating either no PT experience or PT experience occurring prior to training. Likewise, clients showed greater total reductions of psychological distress when their respective counselors reported PT experience during graduate training compared to no reported PT experience or PT experience occurring prior to graduate training. Suggestions for future research focus on replicating the study using a larger counselor trainee sample size with more clients per counselor trainee and increased observations (i.e., sessions) per client. Implications for the training of psychotherapists include focusing on how personal therapy may enhance counselor growth and development.

Book Counselor Trainees  Experience of Analyzing Their Counseling Sessions During a Master s  Level Practicum

Download or read book Counselor Trainees Experience of Analyzing Their Counseling Sessions During a Master s Level Practicum written by Abbie VanDerWege and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the central goals of counselor training is to promote and ensure competence in novice counselors (Krasner, Howard & Brown, 1998), and effective performance of counseling skills is a key source of competence for counselor trainees (Falender & Shafrankse, 2007). Previous research has separately addressed the advantages of skills-based training (e.g., Buser, 2008; Crews et al., 2005; Urbani et al., 2002); factors associated with counseling self-efficacy (e.g. Larson, 1998; Larson & Daniels, 1998); the Integrated Development Model (Stoltenberg, McNeill & Delworth, 1998) of counselor development ; and video review in counselor training (e.g., Pelling & Renard, 1999; Scaufe, 2001). None of these studies, however, have concurrently explored changes in these factors from the perspective of master's-level counselor trainees in their first practicum as they use digital recording and playback technology to analyze their counseling skills performance and receive feedback about their performance from their supervisors. to address this gap, the purpose of this phenomenological qualitative study is to describe the lived experience of counselor trainees as they engaged in the training phenomenon, which included analyzing counseling skills demonstrartions in session recordings and receiving supervisory feedback about that analysis. The present study also explores what the trainees reported about changes in their counseling skills performance, counselor development, and counseling self-efficacy. Each of the eight participants completed two interviews over the course of their semester-long counseling practicum. The findings suggest that counselor trainees benefit from having opportunities to consistently analyze their counseling session recordings, whether independently or with their supervisors; would like their supervisors to incorporate video review during supervision; and perfer specific, timely feedback that is both positive and constructive. The results support certain aspects of counselor development and counseling self-efficacy theories, but also include noteworthy exceptions and ideas for future inquiry. Additional findings and a discussion of limitations and implications for training and research are presented.

Book The Impact of Mindfulness Training and Practice on Counselor trainees

Download or read book The Impact of Mindfulness Training and Practice on Counselor trainees written by J. Justin Cook and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to obtain a greater insight into the experiences and perceptions of counselor trainees who received training in mindfulness practices. There were three participants, who were enrolled in a graduate level course in counseling micro-skills and were trained in mindfulness practices during this course, chosen for the qualitative study. A phenomenological approach was used to understand the experience of these participants through two interviews and journal entries over a one-week period of time. The interviews concentrated on their thoughts and perceptions about the impact of their training in mindfulness both in their personal and professional lives. A thematic analysis was conducted to find core themes of impacted areas within the participants' experiences. These themes found were: emotional effects, interpersonal relationships, and self-care. The conclusions of this study showed the benefits of mindfulness practices, which included an overall improvement of life for the participants. Future studies may use this as support toward inquiries over the use of mindfulness within counselor development programs and other related areas.

Book Exploring the Effects of Personal Counseling on the Development of Counselors in Training

Download or read book Exploring the Effects of Personal Counseling on the Development of Counselors in Training written by Kathleen H. Driscoll and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Graduate students from all disciplines report stressful experiences related to academic workload, lack of a healthy work life balance, assistantship responsibilities, and finances (Fox, 2008; Mazzola et al., 2011; Oswalt & Riddock, 2007; Wyatt & Oswalt 2013). Specifically, counselors in training (CITs) experience a combination of graduate school academic rigor with the practice of sitting with clients and developing skills, knowledge, and counseling style. Becoming a counselor is emotionally demanding (Folkes-Skinner, 2016; Folkes-Skinner, Elliot, & Wheeler, 2010; Howard, Inman, & Altman, 2006; Orlinksy & Rønnestad, 2005; Skovholt & Rønnestad, 2003) and interpersonal and intrapersonal changes are elicited through training (Furr & Carroll, 2003). As self-exploration is emerging in training, perturbation of the self is also developing, occasioning developmental transitions that present unique challenges. It appears that CITs need support throughout their counselor development journey to buffer personal and psychological distress. Although there may be many such factors, including emotional, logistical, and financial support from family and friends, the support of other students in the program, and faculty who are sensitive to student struggles, personal counseling seems one approach to self-care and self-awareness that warrants attention. It seems possible that personal counseling may be an avenue for CITs that could facilitate increased self-awareness, healthy counselor development, and personal well-being. To date, research on personal counseling has been primarily a) international, b) with participants who were mandated to access counseling, and c) with participants who were from a range of interdisciplinary mental health training programs. Accordingly, little is known specifically about US-based CITs' experiences related to accessing personal counseling during their training program. That is, counselor education researchers have yet to uncover the breadth and depth of the lived experiences of US-based CITs who voluntarily access counseling services. The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of CITs accessing personal counseling and how this impacts counselor development in specific regards to self-awareness, empathy development, self-reflection, tolerance for ambiguity, self-efficacy, and self-care. The following research questions were addressed through this study: (1) What are the experiences of CITs utilizing personal counseling during their training program? (2) How do CITs understand how their personal counseling experience has influenced their development as a professional counselor? Through qualitative interviews, the experiences of CITs and the impacts on counselor development were explored, as well as the positive and negative aspects of these experiences. In analyzing ten individual interviews with master's level CITs voluntary seeking counseling, five domains emerged that provide insight into the research questions. The domains include the following: (1) previous counseling experience, (2) motivation, (3) personal takeaways of going to counseling, (4) professional takeaways of going to counseling, and (5) other. Categories and subcategories emerged within these domains as well including the following: a) academic/professional encouragement, b) meaningful counseling experiences, c) family, social and cultural influences, d) logistical barriers, e) counselor relationship, f) learning from the counseling, g) positive impact on counselor development, and h) personal counseling is considered "best practice". Research results, study limitations, implications for counselor educators, counselor training, and CITs, and future research directions are discussed."--Abstract from author supplied metadata
