Reflections on Being Helped
- Think of an experience in which you received help of any kind (not necessarily from a mental health professional). Then, in a 2-3 pages paper, please complete the following:
- Rate the helper using the “Helper Rating Form” attached. Make sure to attach the completed form to your paper.
- Select 4 of the ratings on the Rating Form, and explain how they relate to your experience.
- What expectations, assumptions and did you bring to the helping process?
- What assumptions and expectations do you think the helper brought to it?
- How has the experience shaped your skills as a counselor in training?
