NU673 Units 2 and 8 PMHNP Journal
The purpose of this video is self-reflection regarding the therapeutic process and one’s own role in that process as a PMHNP provider. Through reflective practice, you will evaluate your own emotional intelligence as defined as the capacity to recognize one’s own feelings as well as others’ and one’s ability to monitor and manage those feelings. The point of the exercise is to learn about yourself, your triggers, the types of cases you end up getting overly involved with, and those you would rather refer to someone else. The idea is to be able to step back personally and analyze your behaviors/thoughts/decisions and how those impact both you and your clients.
