Therapeutic Use of Self in Psychiatric Nursing
[ send me this essay ]
A 12 page paper discussing the therapeutic use of self and self-disclosure in the psychiatric setting. Formal training provides the technical knowledge needed to provide competent care in the psychiatric setting, but formal training also can be seen as only the beginning point of building competence. Experience and reflection on that experience are critical factors. It seems that therapeutic use of self and self-disclosure are outgrowths of this experience and reflection. The two issues are interconnected, but they also can be separate. Some still believe that self-disclosure constitutes breach of professional behavior, but there is a growing awareness that the therapeutic use of self and self-disclosure can be quite beneficial not only for the patient, but also for the nurse. Bibliography lists 16 sources.

Therapy Session Critique
[ send me this essay ]
A 20 page paper critiquing a therapy session with Rose, a concerned mother of a preschooler. Rose has approached Dr. Berenson for assistance with the problem of her five-year-old daughter waking during the night and expecting to spend the rest of the night with her mother. Dr. Berenson barely acknowledges the issue at hand, and never once does he offer Rose any practical, workable advice. Neither does he inform Rose that her problem is a common one, and that at her daughter's age it is approaching the point of curing itself. He interrupts Rose repeatedly. He does not listen, and he is impatient to gain control of both Rose and the session, not for the purpose of truly helping Rose, but more as a venue in which he can address his own needs for self-importance. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
