Another Step Closer

Yesterday I finished I finished my literature review so right now I am feeling really great. I got through the stress after hours and hours. I put together 6 resources: that talked about therapy costs, low-costing therapy, psychology, group therapy, American Group Psychotherapy Association, an overview. Because it was the first time that I have every written a literature review, I am very proud of myself. Now that I have finished this review, I have a set idea on how things are going to go. I know what it takes for me to create a "good" and benificial therapy group. After looking up more information, I have decided to inform people about my group. I am also going to create a website that informs people about what will happen in this group and who will qualify. Right now, I am thinking that only girls will be able to qualify and they must be in 5 to 9 grade. I already know that I'm going to start talking to the counselors and principals at the Highlands middle school and elementary to recruit girls from there. Rosita has already offered to help me conduct this group. I'm also going to make a waiver that says whatever is said in the therapy group won't be spread outside of the group.

I'm back

Wow, I haven’t done this in like forever. Where should I start? Before the Christmas break, the entire senior class had to write a letter of invitation to our panel members. I planned for Susan Davis, Rosita Walden, Debra Ybarra, and Peggy Mahan. Of those four only Susan and Rosita accepted the invitation. I haven’t yet heard from the other two, which worries me. Do I have the wrong email address for the other two? Do they not want to be part of my panel? If so, who will I get to become my other two panel members? This are questions that I don’t have a complete answer to and I’m starting to stress a little. Can anyone give me advise on what I should do?

Something that I am proud to say is that I am all caught up with my e-portfolio. I have my two videos uploaded, my resume, and other information. I would like for people to look at it and tell me what you think about it. I would really appreciate it.

I am currently thinking about where I should hold this group therapy. A possible idea that I had was having the group meet at each other’s house so people can save gas and money. I can alternate the meeting place each weekend so each person has a chance to save some money. I know I want it to be during the weekend. I’ve been thinking about having a trial period to see if my ideas are right and successful. During this trial period I would observe and analyze what went on.
