This document discusses self-care and the importance of self-care policies in the workplace, especially for helping professionals. It defines key terms like self-care, burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma. It notes that helping professionals are at high risk for these conditions due to chronic empathy use and exposure to trauma. The document recommends trauma-informed self-care practices and policies for organizations, including training, manageable caseloads, surveys to assess risks, and employee assistance programs, to support staff well-being and prevent turnover.
The document describes a therapeutic community (TC) treatment modality. A TC is an environment where members help each other get help while also helping others. It operates like a family with hierarchical roles and responsibilities. The primary therapists are peers and staff who serve as recovery models and help residents through counseling, seminars, skills development, and other rehabilitation activities. The goal of a TC is to promote positive change and prepare clients to reintegrate into the community as reformed individuals.

The current paper presents the concepts behind the design of a homelike facility on a secluded campus for long-term
residential care for exploited adolescents, specifically females ages 11-17, who have been victims of commercial sexual
exploitation. The treatment model is innovative in that it is a long-term treatment and housing solution with no pre-defined
maximum length of stay. Integral to the model is the assumption that the built environment has direct and indirect effects
on mental health.(1) This paper presents the research behind the design thinking and specific design elements to create
a homelike environment. Research indicates the positive effects of a familiar homelike environment. to be: support of a
healthy, coherent life view; lowering of resident and staff stress levels and restoration from fatigue; facilitating personal
control; and supporting socially supportive relationships. The result is that residents are more trusting and accepting of
treatment. Research on the direct correlation between the homelike character and specific residential design elements to
the success of treatment will be forthcoming when the model site, Courage House Northern California is operational.
The author outlines their philosophy of nursing in three parts: who/what is calling them to nursing, why they feel called to nursing, and how they respond to the call. They see God and the Bible as the ultimate call to nursing, citing a passage about loving God and others. This changed their view of nursing from helping people for themselves to loving people as God loves. The need for nursing care is great due to suffering in the world, and nurses continue God's work of healing and compassion as Jesus did.

This document outlines a nursing student's philosophy of nursing. Some key points:
1) The student believes caring for patients holistically - not just physically but also emotionally and spiritually - is important.
2) The student's core values of happiness, family, and honesty will guide how they care for patients and advocate for their needs.
3) Human Becoming Theory influences the student to see patients as more than just their illness and help them through life changes.
4) While still exploring their own faith, the student finds biblical principles like treating others with kindness can still guide their practice.
Julie Kenney developed her personal philosophy of nursing based on her clinical experience, personal growth, and the theories of esteemed nursing theorists like Jean Watson and Imogene King. She believes that caring is the most important factor in nursing and influences other ideals like knowledge and skills. Watson's Philosophy and Science of Caring supports her view that caring creates positive effects and fosters trust and hope. King's Theory of Goal Attainment emphasizes the importance of communication, goal setting, and working towards goals, which allows patients to improve their health while building rapport. Kenney thrives in environments that promote respect, dedication, community, and integrity, as exemplified by her recent clinical experience at Tucson Medical Center.
The document provides an extensive resume for Christopher Jason Schalge, PhD, outlining his clinical experience which includes private practice as an integrity coach, various clinical positions in residential treatment centers, and predoctoral and postdoctoral internships. It also lists his education as a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Sofia University, along with research, teaching, and presentation experience primarily focused on mindfulness, somatics, and conflict resolution.
Stimulus and Exposure Therapy--Final ProjectTamela McGhee
This document discusses how Christian counselors can effectively work with clients suffering from PTSD by incorporating both clinical and faith-based counseling techniques. It provides background on PTSD and explains how exposure therapy is an important clinical technique used to desensitize trauma responses. However, clients often first seek help from religious leaders rather than clinical therapists. Therefore, it is important for Christian counselors to understand clinical techniques like exposure therapy so they can properly support clients. When combined with biblical principles and spiritual guidance, faith-based counseling can further enhance clinical treatment by addressing underlying guilt or unhealthy thoughts that contributed to a client's trauma responses. The document argues that an optimal approach is for Christian counselors to be well-versed in both clinical and religious counseling methods.
This document provides an overview of the field of nursing, including: definitions of nursing from pioneers like Florence Nightingale and Virginia Henderson; recipients of nursing care such as patients, clients, and consumers; the scope of nursing practice including health promotion, illness prevention, restoring health, and end-of-life care; settings of nursing practice; standards of clinical practice; and roles of nurses including caregiver, communicator, teacher, advocate, counselor, change agent, leader, manager, case manager, and research consumer.
Kayla Bigbee outlines her nursing philosophy in this paper. She defines nursing as a holistic profession focused on meeting patients' physical, emotional, spiritual and mental needs. Biblical principles like demonstrating God's love through compassionate care influence her approach. The humanbecoming theory teaches her to see patients as experts and establish trust. Her experiences in nursing school and with patients in clinicals have shaped her identity as a caring nurse committed to critical care. She has become more confident, motivated and passionate about nursing through overcoming struggles in her program.
The document discusses the importance of hope in mental health nursing. It defines hope as a perception that something desired may happen. Hope plays a protective role for one's well-being and health. Mental health nurses aim to measure a client's level of hope and identify factors that influence hope or hopelessness. The nurse's role is to inspire hope through education, group therapy, humor, and addressing a client's spiritual needs. Assessing hope involves using scales like the Herth Hope Scale. Low levels of hope can indicate depression and risk of suicide. Stigma against mental illness can reduce hope, so nurses must work to reduce stigma's harmful effects.
The nurse has seen many changes in nursing since starting in 1974. In the past, doctors led care and nurses followed orders without question. Patients had little say and were not fully informed. The nurse now sees their role as advocating for patients and facilitating their autonomy and decision making. The nurse believes Jean Watson's Theory of Human Caring fits their philosophy, seeing people as more than their illness and considering psychological/social factors. The nurse aims to care for the whole person within their communities and values putting patients first over schedules.
The document provides information on ethics and values in nursing. It discusses how nurses acquire personal and professional values through socialization and experience. Nurses must clarify their own values and understand how values influence decision making. When faced with an ethical dilemma, nurses have two main roles - to examine their own values and understand the client's values, and to think ahead about possible moral problems. The document also outlines moral principles like autonomy, beneficence and justice that guide ethical decision making. It provides steps for nurses to advocate for clients and support them during moral dilemmas.
The document summarizes a mental health symposium focused on perfectionism. It provides an overview of the keynote speaker, Julie de Azevedo Hanks, and her opening presentation on embracing imperfection and creativity as an antidote to perfectionism. It also outlines the schedule of presentations throughout the day-long event, including several breakout sessions on topics like overcoming perfectionism and the relationship between perfectionism, religiosity, and depression. Brief biographies are provided for each of the presenters.
The document discusses the author Cynthia Lee's philosophy of nursing, which emphasizes compassion, honesty, and respect. She believes these qualities are necessary to provide excellent patient care and treat each person as an individual rather than just a diagnosis. Compassion involves empathizing with patients and considering their physical, social, and mental wellbeing. Honesty builds trust between nurses and patients. Respect means treating patients with dignity, involving them in their care, and understanding their culture and beliefs. With these qualities, nurses can create an environment that optimizes patient health.
This document discusses the importance of developing a therapeutic relationship between nurses and patients. It defines a therapeutic relationship as a mutual learning experience based on respect and acceptance. The key elements of a therapeutic relationship are identified as acceptance, effective communication, trust, empathy, rapport, respect, and genuineness. Different types of relationships like social, intimate, and therapeutic are also compared. Finally, the document outlines the different phases in developing a therapeutic relationship with patients.
This document discusses family therapy, including defining the family as the primary social system and source of emotional attachment. It notes that family therapists see an individual's psychiatric problems as related to their family. The goals of family therapy are to change dysfunctional relationships and interactions, improve communication and problem-solving skills, and strengthen the family system. Specific techniques used include assessment, teaching skills, and behavioral contracts. Family therapy can help with issues like mental illness, substance abuse, and relationship problems. The focus is on observing and improving family dynamics and supporting healthy functioning.
This document discusses self-care for patients with long-term conditions. It notes that over 15 million people in England live with at least one long-term condition, accounting for most NHS spending. Self-care is defined as individuals taking responsibility for their own health and well-being with support from healthcare professionals. This includes maintaining health, meeting needs, preventing illness, and managing conditions. Supported self-care can improve health outcomes, patient satisfaction, and empower patients to take more control.

Meeting People Where They Are: Taking Spiritual Assessment – Tessie Mandeville, Reverend & Bobbi Virta, Reverend
Presented at the 2015 Palliative Care Summer Institute conference at Bellingham Technical College
The document is a nursing student's philosophy paper. It discusses the student's passion for nursing, especially in critical care settings. The student's philosophy is to treat others with kindness and compassion. The paper also examines several nursing theories that influence the student's approach, such as humanbecoming theory, advocating for patient-centered care. The student believes their calling is to serve as the hands and feet of God by caring for patients holistically through difficult times.
This document discusses ethics, values, and advocacy in nursing. It defines key concepts like values, beliefs, attitudes, and moral principles. It explains how personal and professional values develop and the process of values clarification. The document also discusses ethical decision making, nursing codes of ethics, and the nurse's role as an advocate. Advocacy in nursing means protecting and supporting a patient's rights and well-being.
The document discusses the recovery model and language used in mental health. It describes the recovery model as focusing on living a meaningful life in the community while achieving one's full potential, rather than being defined by symptoms. Key components of the recovery model include having hope, supportive relationships, empowerment, coping strategies, and finding meaning. The recovery model emphasizes equality, strengths-based approaches, and choice and control in treatment. In contrast, the medical model uses stigmatizing language like "patient" and focuses on illness. The recovery model uses language emphasizing living with mental illness rather than being defined by diagnoses.
Brendan Phillips presented at the 2015 Physiotherapy Conference on closing the gaps in service delivery to Aboriginal people. He shared stories from working with Aboriginal communities and emphasized the importance of understanding their experiences of trauma, loss, and spiritual needs in a holistic, biopsychosocial-spiritual model of care. Phillips called on physiotherapists to provide more explicit consideration of concepts like hope to better support recovery and promote thriving among Aboriginal patients.

Motivational interviewing is an effective counseling technique for behavior change that has been shown to work for issues like exercising, healthy eating, mental health problems, and addiction. It focuses on developing a person's intrinsic motivation by allowing them to work through issues and create a personalized change plan. As a registered mental health nurse, I will use motivational interviewing to help Mildred, a moderately obese Hindu woman with a teenage daughter, hypertension, and a partner with mental health issues. I will engage with her, build rapport, explain confidentiality, and focus the discussion on her values, goals, and priorities to develop a change plan that empowers her autonomy.

Substance use Anxiety Group Curriculum
Southern New Hampshire University
Clinical Mental Health Counseling Department, COU660
Dr. Caroline P.
Rationale for the group
In Massachusetts, we have several groups for substance use both such as AA meetings and , NA meetings that are held in most area areasjust not a sufficient amount. Some. So me groups are also held at treatment centers by alumni which is a great thing because it will provide members with great responsibility skills. Some of the groups like psychoeducation and 12 steps meetings are mainly for those who are going through andchallenges and have a past with substance use. I plan to hold a group not only for those who have been through it but also withhave family members that are looking for resources and better understanding of the disease. The need for substance use group in the Boston, MassMassachusetts community is in high demand. Although Boston is a wide community where the rent can be high and have good paying jobs, many still struggle s with the everyday life stressors that can lead to excessive drinking. In my community I believe that the need for substance use group can benefit so many specifically those in the poverty area, because they are dealing with these issues every day. Also, due to therapy being frown upon in their environment and some lack the ability to seek professional help. Although some may have the need but will not attend due to therapy being frown upon in their environment. Comment by Perjessy, Caroline: Make sure you are revising for clarity. I know you said this was a draft, so keeping that In mind Comment by Perjessy, Caroline: Revise for clarity
The purpose of substance use group is to help individuals who are have dealing with anxiety and have an underlining issue like anxiety.

Returning from Prison - Building Health, Purpose and CommunityMichael Changaris
Here are the key steps I would take to develop a health reentry program in my clinic:
1. Assess the needs of the returning population in my community through surveys and focus groups to understand barriers to care.

Nursing Leadership
While raising two adolescent girls, this author is working on her Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner degree (PMHNP).
Psychiatric disorders within these professions are multifaceted and rising at an alarming rate. My most recent project is hosting a website for my non-profit organization, sharing my research and fundraising for mental health therapy for local MP and FRs; my efforts supported by their respective employers. During personal interactions, many have expressed to me that for psychological symptoms, they are directed to contact their respective employee assistance program (EAP). Unfortunately, combined with the already perceived stigma of seeking help, the true reluctance was the absence of an EAP clinician with first-hand experience in these unique occupations. These concerns significantly limit the number of “relatable” practitioners therefore, as a trusted partner, incorporating over 20 years of experience with MP and FRs, I will change this for all of us.

Core Values
Prior to this course, this author always felt that through life, open-mindedness, perseverance, compassion, education, and innovation, were her core values. Remaining open-minded about different individuals or situations has afforded this author the gift of seeing people and things from a different perspective than her own. The ability to persevere despite challenges from nearly every ACE factor and still maintain compassion for others is a core value that this author has been able to maintain through life and currently teach to her children. Education and innovation have been the foundation of this perseverance in finding not only why people think the way they do but also how to help good people out of bad situations. When this author engaged in the Gallop survey presented, the results were very similar with strengths a rel ...
The document discusses the importance of holistic assessment for nurses.

The document argues that carrying out care based on holistic assessments leads to better nursing outcomes.

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdfBen Linders
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

2. The Relationship is at the core of
Positive & Humanistic Approaches
'In my early professional years I was asking the
question: How can I treat, or cure, or change
this person? Now I would phrase the question
in this way: How can I provide a relationship
which this person may use for his/her own
personal growth?'
Carl Rogers, On Becoming a Person, 1961
3. Relational Variables &
Interpersonal Crisis
The importance of the therapeutic alliance over
allegiance has been shown so far
What we don’t know yet is how and what, i.e. the exact
processes and mechanisms
Trust, Safety & Intimacy: Pillars of human wellness and
interaction – Basic assumptions
Ruptured in crisis/trauma

14. …In a nutshell
We know that:
The emotional system ‘up-loads’ and how it ‘off-
loads’ and ‘reboots’
Relational factors can act as catalyst of change
Characteristics of a helpful relationship:
Trust
Consistency
Unconditional acceptance/no judgment
Knowledge, awareness and competence
15. Future directions – The Vision
We have reasons to beleve that Trust might be a key
factor and process in the therapeutic relationship
Develop the concept of TRUST as the new and radical
relational variable, and how it can be used for
interventions in mental and physical care
Develop an ‘Anatomy of Trust’, i.e. identify the
components, barriers to, and strategies to apply it
therapeutically
Developing a scale to measure trust in therapy
16. …As a final word
What I am proposing is taking us back to the basics
BUT demands shifts in
Clinical practice
Training of professionals
Supervision/consultative support
Service delivery
Community attitudes
Nevertheless, it can potentially revolutionise how we
care for people, and how we connect with them, in
order to facilitate wellness on all levels
