Document Summary
Action skills for building resilience and managing stress. Awareness, knowledge, and skills of empathic self-disclosure and feedback. Before these skills can be used, counselors must have a solid understanding of their relationship with the client: both skills should be used sparingly and only when the client appears to need more counselor involvement. Later in the session, it can also help them talk more openly. Feedback: presenting clients with clear, nonjudgmental info/opinions on client thoughts, feelings, and behaviors: anticipated response: can be supportive or challenging. Supportive feedback searches for strengths, while challenges ask clients to think more carefully about themselves. Specific skills of self-disclosure and feedback: listen first, be brief and concrete. Immediately return the focus to the client afterwards: use i statements. Give homework and create an action plan showing the story, goals, and how they will be accomplished. Awareness, knowledge, and skills of natural and logical consequences.
