         <description><![CDATA[<div>New self-esteem guide for teen girls:<br>This article is for the topic of trust and safety in group counseling.  It explains how and why teen girls should be comfortable with who they are.  I took from this article that teen girls need to trust that they are good enough and they should feel safe to trust their teachers and counselors that are there to help them.  It was mentioned in the article to make friends or surround yourself around people who have the same values or wants out of life and to trust the process.  Students, especially teen girls need to have a sense of security around them in order to feel comfortable speaking.  Once they have worked on themselves, group counseling would go much smoother, I believe.  <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Counselors need to constantly consider the "why" of therapy.  The biggest behavior to avoid as a counselor, is lack of communication to their members about the "why" they are coming to therapy.  The "why" should drive the direction of topics, and be revisited often. <br>Therapists should initiate termination as intended to be in the "best interest" of the clients and/or group.  Counselors should not avoid discussing termination; the dissolution of sessions should be determined, revisited and discussed often, to prepare for the emotional stress of ending sessions. <br>It is natural for people to feel uncomfortable discussing subjects that evoke emotional strain, but this is the nature of why someone comes to group or counseling. Counselors need not be uncomfortable having uncomfortable conversations. (Howes, 2014.) Counselors need to be aware of the potential for transference and counter transference in working with a population, especially in addressing the termination phase of a therapeutic relationship.
