Stages of Group Counseling

[@TexasAlabama]

Thank you for this! Studying for the NCE and I'm so tired of reading, this is great!

[@rociolovesalex]

Same, I hope your test went well… I am on that same boat now…

[@ExpressionsofAwakening]

I would say that the purpose of "storming stage" is more a testing to see if its a safe place that is achieved in the next stage.

Love your videos, but your volume make it very hard to hear unless I’m glued to your screen.

[@terrydigenti8756]

Yes, I thought it was my computer but when I looked at other videos it wasn't the case. It was very hard to hear him, especially in a public cafe even with headphones on.

Weird when I am required to watch a youtube video for my masters program from someone who I have been subsribed to for several years.

I'm a CES professor and use his videos for students

[@petergaray2364]

Dr. Grande, I appreciate you uploading this video. I was wondering. How would a counselor mitigate a crisis within the group? E.g. Let's suppose that two clients start getting upset and screaming at one another. How would you de-escalate the situation?

[@jbratt6555]

Peter Garay Good luck getting a straightforward answer. They don't exist in this field. You have the answer within you is basically what you'll get. I never got one straightforward answer ever. The holy spirit can't give me the words to say every time.

Viewing your question...I have experienced this in a classroom setting. I experienced two adult women begin screaming at one another during one of my classes. I give credit to some behavioral management training, and to God. My behavioral management taught me to REMAIN NUETRAL and CALM. (Which believe me is HARD...but I did.) And God helped me confront one of the women and get in her face (after asking her and the other person to stop screaming...and to ask: HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE IN THIS CLASS? It took her by surprise and she said, "What...what?" And I repeated again, HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE IN THIS CLASS? She said, "I don't know five?" I replied, "Six and THEY ARE ALL HERE TO LEARN. And, immediately she clammed up. Looking back, this worked as at the time she was functioning totally from her "emotional brain". By asking this question, she had to switch to the "thinking" part of her brain, thus disengaging the emotional and also changing her tirade. Then after answering this, she realized there were five others who were there for a distinct purpose, and her tirade was not helping them, as they were there to learn. I only followed what I felt the Lord led me to do. Also, fast forward...this one student was in another class with me, and she mentioned she would like to pray for the class, when I asked, "Who would like to pray?" She prayed for the class, and I have to say she gave the most beautiful, touching prayer for me that any student had prayed. Why? Because I had remained neutral and calm, she did not "hold anything" against me. I also learned another student in the class was praying for me. As you may have guessed this was at a Christian school. I always welcome Christ and prayer into my classrooms! This shook me up, but in the end, a very valuable lesson to learn.

I hope this is one of the rules and refer the two members to individual counseling.

[@MindfulLifex]

It depends what stage the group is in.

[@MindfulLifex]

@@yeseniacannon6333 LOL no, that's not how it works.
