V-Day is coming up :)

I was thinking about how this wonderful holiday is coming up once again! I have only spent it one time with a boyfriend, and the rest I have been single. It really doesn't bother me that I am single on Valentine's Day when I think that I am only 20. I still have plenty of time!

Do you want to know what I was doing last Valentine's Day? I worked, had a nice breakfast with my roomies, and watched my favorite thing in the world: Wishes. I think that was a pretty awesome Valentine's Day. Thinking back, a day in Magic Kingdom is always magical. My valentine's day won't be that magical because it probably will be full of homework and classes. Maybe, I will send some valentine's though. I might dedicate the whole day to Michael Buble music because that always makes me happy. My theme song for the day could be "Just haven't met you yet". I like this idea.

What are your plans for valentine's day?

Life After Grad School

Image
Happy news. I graduated in May and I haven't posted about anything, so here comes my life after grad school post. My graduation weekend was unlike anything other. I graduated on May 21st, 2016, the day after my birthday. I turned 25 and then the day after I graduated with my MSW. It was going to be the happiest and most eventful weekend during the summer and then....I got hand foot and mouth disease! It is a children's disease but I guess I got it from my internship. I don't recommend getting if you ever have the choice :) Nonetheless, graduation happened and then my post school life began. I had the summer off and had plenty of time to travel and go to Girls Camp and the Stake Youth Trek. I finished my year off at my internship and then enjoyed the summer. We went to Hawaii for a week and explored the main island. We hiked, visited the volcano, soaked up the sun on beaches, snorkled with sea turtles, ate fish and looked at waterfalls. It was the perfect way to cel...

The Start of the Healing Process

I had an experience the other day with one of my students left me emotionally exhausted but it taught me so much about healing and the start of that process.  Healing is something that happens throughout the therapeutic relationship as you develop rapport. Healing occurs when the client is comfortable sharing information they have withheld because of whatever barrier held them back before. Healing is not something that happens overnight. Healing involves people, it is not a individualistic thing for the most part.  I was working with one of my students who was tough. He had a hard egg shell you could say and breaking his egg shell to where he could smile at you was difficult. A lot of times, people will look at these people and say that they are hopeless because they will never open up and continue to have behavior problems. The first couple of sessions was just getting the basic of information shared and then having to calm him down because he thought therapy was stupi...

What It Really Means to be a Social Worker

I completed my first year of school...this time I got paid for it! Like I have said, I am working for a school district and this was my first year of being the "real deal". As I was reflecting on my last year as being a mental health therapist, I was thinking of memories from this year. I have gained many more stories to my collection of all varieties. Some stories are too sad to share on this blog and some are hilarious. I was thinking about other peoples reactions to me when I tell them what I do and this were some of the most common: "What exactly do you do?" "Do you have a magic wand" "Can I get some free therapy" No response....(just looks at me) "Perfect, this kid is not doing work, can you talk to him" "When are you going to fix (insert name)'s problems" "My (insert family member/friend) is diagnosed with a disorder and takes some pill" The number one thing I have learned after my first year is...
