Unit Three: Crisis prevention and threat assessment

# data[].attributes.body
Over the course of this class I have have learned the importance of detecting a problem early and acting on it. The crisis prevention is a very vital tool you need to have in place at the counseling profession. It is important in being a helping professional that you make it know the importance of parents knowing the warning signs of bullying. This will help in the prevention process greatly, because it adds an extra support system in the house hold to make their kids feel that love they should already be getting. Working together with my group members to come up with a great plan for bullying prevention was a great experience. I learned alot from them in putting together our presentation, and this helped me for the future when developing my own crisis prevention plan.

Unit One: Reference guide for mental health disorders

# data[].attributes.body
In the process of learning more about these different mental health disorders. I learned that one in five Americans will experience a diagnosable mental health experience at least once in their lifetime. Depression and Anxiety are two of the most diagnosed disorders children grow up experiencing. This may come from many things, such as a lack of parental guidance to physical abuse from a parent. Also learning about the broad number of different disorders opened my eyes to the possibility of having mental health problems from any type of reoccurring situation in your life.

Unit One: Assessing prior knowledge discussion

# data[].attributes.body
In assessing my prior knowledge on mental health illnesses, I really didn't know much about the topics I would be learning about. During this course, I have picked up much-needed information on so many different topics such as Depression, Anxiety disorders, and abuse and violence to name a few. This discussion allowed me to open my mind and learn from my classmates about some of their stories and gain some knowledge on different disorders I had never heard of. This was a very helpful tool for me and my classmates to connect and learn from each other before getting to the actual learning assignments in the modules.

Unit Two: Developmental discussion on Trauma

# data[].attributes.body
During this discussion, I gained so much insight into the different views and examples of trauma. Some of which I had no idea even existed due to not being educated as a youth. The first one is emotional abuse, specifically the trauma of humiliation. For example, a child who is humiliated by public shaming at school or in a family situation can have trouble with self-esteem and even create feelings of social anxiety. The second one is Complex Trauma is the exposure to different and multiple events of trauma during early childhood from the behaviors and actions of parents or guardians.  An example of complex trauma could be a child experiencing long-term, chronic neglect or abandonment.

Unit Three: ABC model of crisis intervention

# data[].attributes.body
The ABC model is a great exercise for putting together a meaningful plan of dealing with trauma. Some of the hardships you may go through in a trauma situation can be planned like a family member dying, or they can be spontaneous like a devastating earthquake. That is what this plan is meant for, no matter the situation you are prepared to deal with it the best way possible. I learned that this plan is best used to develop ways to cope and solve problems. Crisis intervention aims to assist the individual in recovering from the crisis and to prevent serious long-term problems from developing. Working on this plan made me really look and analyze the case study to help me complete the assignment.

This was a great exercise to learn about different ethical and moral situations. I was happy with the turn out of this assignment because it made me think about each scenario carefully. It puts you right in the moment with theses characters and makes you feel as though you are actually there helping these people through a difficult situation. Learning who to talk to first in a crisis situation was very helpful information I learned. Also learning how to say somethings is a major skill to understand in these crisis situations as well. Many times communication is one of the keys to effective prevention, and showing the victims your concern for them is reassuring.
