Change the way you think.

I said hi to my friend but she didn't reply me. She even walked faster passing me. "Oh, maybe she's late to class and in rush. Or maybe she has stomach ache and she wants to go to toilet badly." I said to myself. (Cognitive Behavior Therapy applied)

Cognitive Behavior Therapy helps me to change the way I think and interpret events in my live. Before this, even just a little problem can give me anxiety thinking about it. Thanks to this class and Dr Fa as I learned CBT from this class. 

The sequel to my story,

The other day, she came to me and said sorry for ignoring me. Her proposal was rejected by the lecturer and she felt down for that and all she wanted to do was crying. And that's why she rushed to the toilet and didn't reply my hi. 

Alhamdulillah our friendship is not affected. 

With love,

passion - obstacle = success

Hello everybody. Seems like I'm a little bit late for the posting but never mind. I would like to share about classes that I had gone through this September. Well, during the first class, its a quite challenging. not because of the subject but the circumstances. As a counsellor (trainee), its can be said as one of our first 'mental exam' to stay focus in the class with our lecturer. The weather was haze and it was so hot in the class. Gladly, our lecturer successfully got our attention and the class proceed till end. It was really fun. We were introduced more clearly about this course and how important it was. Last but not least, everybody can be a counsellor, but not everybody can be professional.

Effective Helper!

Assalamualaikum and hai. I want to share something since that I become excited to type it off. Effective helper for me in my own understanding after enjoying the class is that we as a counsellor to be must alert to confidentiality purpose of our client. As we are a professional helper so it would be 1 way helping process. The helpee only perceived help from the helper on the other hand the helper cannot received help from the helpee.

Learning a New Skills

Hey guys! 23 September 2015 is our third BHS class and its getting more fun as we learn a new skills in helping other people. So far I can see that its quite easy to apply all the skills that we have learn in our daily life if we are a real helper. Every single skills that we have learn is really meaningful and important as it is a guide line for us to be a good counselor. I feel really grateful and I can considered that we are lucky to be the chosen one for studying this subject. Although it's kind of hot in the class, but seriously I can't wait for the next class and can't wait to learn a new unit!

Pressure build Diamond !!

After attended the Basic Helping Skills class , i learnt a lot of way to build up relationship as according to Barmmer ,there is 2 phases and 8 stages in conducting a helping process. This really help me a lot when i conducting interview with other people on assignment kmc 1013 . Besides that , i also understand that what is different helper and helpee ... Just after the second class,i wonder why i puts the answer not sure in the feedback ??

Besides that , after the 3 class of BHS , i learn DASIE model and some therapies  like Person-centered therapy which focus on the empathy , respect and congruency ; and the Cognitive -behaviour therapy on mainly focus on what we think positively ...

 lastly , i would like to share about some things on Dr Ivan Joseph said : there is no magic button , there only have a button called repetition , and guys don't bait up just after some failure , be persistant and don't lose self-believes in yourself ... u can do it !!

UNIT 2 : MODEL AND THEORIES

After attend this class and learn about model and theories it is sound interesting to me. DASIE model and PERSON-CENTERED THEORY is important for the first beginner to be applied by counselor during counseling session. Like what Dr. Fa told, to be a professional counselor we cannot be emotional. Besides, empathy need to use more rather than sympathy. Honestly, before this I was very quickly feel sympathized to others that need need helps. From now on I will try to put the empathy, respect and congruency in myself so that I can help clients professionally.
