The journaling activities throughout the course and the activities during residency provide ample material for reflection to develop a plan for strengthening your skills and self-care in the coming months and years. The course project is structured to guide you through identifying skills you have demonstrated and your goals for the future.

Counselor Self-Disclosure
As counselors develop their therapeutic style and foundation, the question of self-disclosure arises both for group and individual counselors. Self-disclosure can be an effective therapeutic tool when used appropriately by the counseling professional.
As both group and individual counselors develop their therapeutic style and foundation, the issue of unfinished business must constantly be addressed as it can be a major hindrance in development.
