Developing as a group Therapist

Counseling and psychology are based on empirical research. Such research leads to best practices in the field. Group therapy has been in existence for decades, and, thus, there is a robust body of knowledge of what works, and theory that outlines why it works. When blended with an ethical and legal code, an outline of professional competencies is created. Professional associations typically outline the foundations for both professional culture and professional competencies. In the group therapy world, such associations include the American Psychological Association, the American Counseling Association, and the Association for Specialists in Group Work.

As a professional therapist, there is a possibility that you might be sued, charged with malpractice, or accused of an ethical code violation during your career. In these situations, one of the first questions that would be asked is, “Were you qualified to be doing what you were doing?” At that time, it would be your responsibility to outline how you were qualified to be practicing as a group therapist. Therefore, as you continue with your training, it is a good idea to keep your course syllabi, document any additional training (e.g., continuing education credits), and maintain membership in a professional association. These steps can help to prove you are a competent group therapist and protect you if your competency is called into question.

For this Discussion, consider the characteristics of a competent therapist. With these thoughts in mind, think about how you might use professional development to increase your own competence as a group therapist. Consider professional organizations that might assist you in this process.

With these thoughts in mind and using these headings:

Provide a brief explanation of what it means to be a competent group therapist.

Explain three ways you might use professional development to increase your competence as a group therapist.

Include any professional organizations you might be interested in joining, and explain why.

  2. Were there any barriers or challenges that inhibited your ability to complete the assessment tool? How would you address these in the future or change your assessment to better address these challenges?
  3. How can this tool assist you in providing appropriate interventions to meet the needs of your patient?
  4. Did you discover that illness and stress amplified the spiritual concern and needs of your interviewee? Explain your answer with examples.

Lesson 2

Activity 1: Group Discussion of Observations

Marketing teams discuss what they observed at the big box stores related to customer service. Together try to determine whether the customers at different stores were different or the same, was marketing inside the store and selling the same, and how effective you believed the customer service was.

Make an electronic graphic that depicts the best characteristics of customer service.

Activity 2: Role Play

Based on what you learned in the Task, each marketing team will role play good and bad customer service. Teams should come up with skits for two different role plays, one good one bad service and different attitudes displayed by the customer.

Once all skits are written, teams role play their skit before the class. The class tries to determine what the issue is, whether it is effective customer service, whether the employee handled the situation right, and how. A brief discussion should follow each team’s 2 skits.

Key Areas of Training

Key Areas of Training” Please respond to the following:

  • Based on the scenario, select one (1) of the four (4) key areas of training, and assess the likelihood of the training that you selected contributing to the enhancement of business development through increased ROI.

Example from one of my classmates:

Cross-cultural training: This training provides skills for employees to be able to communicate one-on-one with other employees from different cultures.

In American, most supervisors or managers tend to focus on the positive aspects of coaching an employee and speaking positively when talking about negative aspects of a job performance when coaching in the moment. When you are talking to someone from another country, they may not realize that there is a problem with their performance because they hear the positive connotations in their supervisor’s voice. Cross-cultural training can be very useful in all business to have supervisors do and understand that in some cultures, you have to be firmer and to the point when there is a problem, otherwise the employee might not understand that there is a problem at all. This type of training can be useful in ROI because it could bring in more culturally diverse employees and can allow an exchange program with American employees and employees from other countries. This type of program could bring in more people interested in working for the company and could even create internships for college students that gives them a chance to both study and work abroad.
