...psychoanalysis. In layman's terms, psychoanalysis is little more than a patient sitting in a room with another person discussing the issues that bother him or her in his or her life. When thinking about this on a broader scale, psychoanalysis is much more. Psychoanalysis with a well educated and trained individual can open the eyes to see deeper into the patients psyche. When the psychoanalyst gives the patient the right tools, he or she can help the patient overcome the obstacles that hold him or her hostage. Thought to Theory Some of the brightest minds in history made their theory into scientific data that people of all ages learn from. Each one; forming an idea in their mind and putting their idea into practice, and then ultimately becoming a theory. Theories are always changing and making better the ideas of the past. Not one person can truly know the human mind to its fullest, but with practice and theory people can learn more about the mind and obtain a better understanding of how the mind works. Testing the theory by putting it into practice is an important step to ensure the validity of the theory. Proving a theory as valid takes time and much research before the theory becomes common practice. There is a reason behind every theory. For example: a child is doing poorly in school. The teacher must ask him or herself why the child is struggling to make assignments and...

Paragraph one is the introduction to the paper. It should begin with something that will grab the reader’s attention and provide a citation to support your opening sentence (Norwood, 2002). Next, support that opening sentence with discussion or explanation with one or multiple sentences which will make up the body of the introductory paragraph. The last sentence of the introduction should highlight areas to be covered in the paper. APA success requires knowledge of the format and skill in concise, clear written communication.

...addiction for many years. My goal is to help people who are still suffering from addiction. I have received many different types of therapy; some of which I liked and some I didn’t. I have selected a few therapies that are of most value to me: cognitive behavior therapy, person centered therapy, and family therapy. These are all treatments that I have received myself and that have assisted me in my recovery. The first type of therapy that I will be talking about is cognitive behavioral therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy operates on the theory that what people believe impacts how they act and feel (Corey 249). For example, if you think that you are of no value then you will probably feel depressed or lonely and might isolate yourself and act out destructively. One of the goals of this therapy is to replace negative thoughts and feelings with ones that are healthier. Another goal is to increase the clients’ skills, so they have more alternatives for responding to certain situations (Corey 280). Behavioral therapy recognizes the importance of the individual, their surroundings, and the interaction between the person and the environment in assisting change (Corey 280). Another emphases of behavioral therapy is assignments. Clients are expected to assume an active role by doing, instead of just talking, both during and outside of the sessions (Corey 251). This is one of the therapies I found very helpful when I was trying to get clean from drugs and away from the lifestyle that comes...

...Theory paper I have always hoped to be able to work with adults dealing with trauma, mental illness, and addictions. My personal opinion is that there is not enough counselors out there for adults. I welcome the idea of having my own practice and to being able to help someone make a positive change in his or her life. Though I must admit, that after working with aggressive, traumatized, abused kids I think I will work with families as well as single adults. At the beginning of this semester, I sated that self-awareness is something that grows over time and with exploration. I find myself reflecting on my thoughts and beliefs on a daily basis, a constant growth that can only lead to being a great counselor in the future. To further recap on my mindset, beliefs, and qualities, I see myself as having a gift for understanding and empathizing with others. Additionally, my personal qualities of patience, compassion, and good listening give me the character traits needed to be an exceptional counselor.It is because of my life experiences that I venture into the world of Clinical Mental Health utilizing theories such as, Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality (choice) Theory, Sand Tray (for the kids), and Client-Centered Therapy. To touch on my view of the world, by no means is it a naïve view. The world can be harsh, vile, and unforgiving. On the other hand, the world is full of opportunity, grace, miracles, and forgiveness. As for the human race, I...

...Applying an Integrated Approach to a Case Example: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person Centered Therapy Applying an Intergraded Approach to a Case Example: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person Centered Therapy Theory plays an important role in the process and outcome of therapy. For this reason, it is a topic that is examined in depth in human service education programs and research. Theory is used to explain client problems and to dictate what is done in the counseling process (Hackney, 1992). Theory can be used to define “the nature of the relationship between the counselor and client, to conceptualize the nature of the presenting problem(s), and to define the resulting counseling goals or desired outcomes” (p.2). In the past, much focus has been paid on delineating and accentuating the differences between the many theories of therapy (Sprenkle, 2003, p. 93). Today, there is a move towards convergence of theories within the helping practices (Hackney, 1992, p. 3; Sprenkle, 2003). Researchers and practitioners are searching for an integrated approach which emphasizes the key components within the helping process and relationship that have been linked to effective therapy (Hackney, 1992, p.2). Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and Person-Centered Therapy (PCT) have been shown to bring about positive changes in therapy. CBT and PCT, like all single-theory approaches, have limitations. Literature suggests that...

These thoughts stem from my values of needing to be seen as reliable, and disappointed in myself for making an avoidable mistake, previous and new internal roles where I make checklists and keep my work area organized, and my mind-brain-body where stress and anxiety were high. The skilled action I chose was one of communication and interaction skills by immediately contacting the professor and turning in the article.

...lifetime. Yet in another way, it may be defined as a succession of related jobs, arranged in hierarchical order, through which a person moves in an organization. As the literal definition of career focuses on an individually perceived sequence, to be more accurate, career may be either individual centered or organization-centered. Therefore, career is often defined separately as external career and internal career. External career refers to the objective categories used by society and organizations to describe the progression of steps through a given occupation, while internal career refers to the set of steps or stages which make up the individual's own concept of career progression within an occupation. For such two different approaches, in organizational context, career can be identified as an integrated pace of vertical and lateral movement in an occupation of an individual over his employment span. Important Elements of Career Analyzing the definitional context, it is therefore; clear that career has the following important elements: (1) It is a proper sequence of job-related activities. Such job-related activities vis-à-vis experience include role experiences at different hierarchical levels of an individual, which lead to an increasing level of responsibilities, status, power, achievements and rewards. (2) It may be individual centered or...

...MANAGEMENT; CHALLENGES AND CHANGES Case Assignment In today’s job market we see many human resource management changes and challenges evolving with the changes in a competitive market environment. One goal of the human resource department is to hire employees that will be as productive as possible, which in turn leads to more revenue and the success of an organization. In healthcare we see even more challenges; making sure there is enough staff members to care for the patient load, keeping morale high, keeping the budget down, making sure the employee is properly trained and oriented, to name just a few. First, explain the significance of human resource management and then identify and discuss the following: 1. How organizational restructuring has impacted staffing in healthcare organizations. 2. Does decreasing the number of employees always save an organization/company money? Why or why not? 3. How would you select a “qualified person” for a position?

...Nursing Theory Assignment Clifton Reed Mississippi University for Women NU 459 Dr. Linda Mills January 25, 2016 Nursing Theorist Shape Modern Nursing Every industry that has been able to survive and build upon its earlier growth has been able to do so because of research, theory, or evidenced-based practice. This statement cannot be more true about the wonderful world of nursing. The world of healthcare continues to change. The airline industry and nuclear power industry have prided themselves on finding ways to standardize processes and decrease accidents and improve employee and public safety. The automotive industry was charged with producing more energy-efficient vehicles. In nursing the goal is to utilize theory and evidenced-based practice to improve the quality of life of communities and people that entrust their care to nurses. Nursing has been forever indebted to many theorists of the modern nursing era. Two notorious individuals that linger in one’s mind are Sister Callista Roy and Madeleine Leininger. These two ladies have helped to transform nursing because of their contributions to evidenced-based practice, nursing research, and nursing theory. Nurses today have a tremendous amount of theory and history to reflect upon. This paper will focus on Sister Callista Roy’s Adaptation Model of Nursing and Madeleine Leininger’s Transcultural Nursing Theory. Sister Callista Roy’s Adaptation Model of Nursing states that one is at...

...Organizational Structure and Culture Paper 14 April 2011 Organizational Structure and Culture Paper An organization is a collection of people working together under a defined structure to achieve predetermined outcomes using financial, human, and material resources. This paper will focus on the organizational structure of Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton (NHCP), how the NHCP structure supports client-centered care, uses information systems, the methods of communications, the decision making-ability, informal and formal reporting lines while looking at issues of power and control, in addition to who the actual leaders are in the organization, how social and cultural influences of the community are integrated into the delivery of care as well as the generational deference influences. All as they relate to the organizational structure of Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton. The type of organizational structure used at Naval hospital Camp Pendleton, is a tall service line structure with the hospital captain at the top answering to regional leadership and directly to Washington D.C. Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton also uses classical theory; the military and federal government work very well on the premise of efficiency through design, a rational and well-defined task or organizational design. Nursing does not have an independent chain of command but falls under the charge nurse in each departments answering to the department head who answers to the executive officer who answers...

Please see the “Nursing Theorists’ Grading Criteria” document, located on the Materials page of the student Web site. Name: Pamela Eliowitz Theorist Selected: Ida Orlando Description of Theory: Orlando’s theory is, one that reflects on the practice of nursing and teaches nurses to learn what is causing an imbalance for the patient in his immediate environment and figuring that out by the nurse interacting with the 2007, p. 338). There are five concepts mentioned by Alligood (2010), they are the following: • Nurses function • Presenting behavior or problem situation • Immediate reaction • Reflective inquiry • Improvement in resolving dilemma (p. 339). In Chitty (2010) one of many theories discussed in nursing explores Ida Orlando’s Theory of the coined process of “Deliberate Nursing (Alligood, 2010, p. 346). Her theory is the cornerstone of the “nursing process” (Chitty, 2010, p. 315). Her theory is one, which has shaped nursing on the premise of “how to improve the patient’s condition by figuring out what they need through the nurses interaction with the patient?” (Chitty, 2010, p. 314). By interactions, verbal and non-verbal can illuminate the problem, which is the immediate concern. Orlando is the one that initiated the patient-centered focus by “involving the patients’ in the decision making process” (Chitty, 2010, p. 315). Her theory...

In addition, cultural and national differences play a part. Another consideration in studying or designing HCI is that user interface technology changes rapidly, offering new interaction possibilities to which previous research findings may not apply. Finally, user preferences change as they gradually master new interfaces. | UX | User experience design (UXD or UED) is the process of enhancing user satisfaction by improving the usability, ease of use, and pleasure provided in the interaction between the user and the product.[1] User experience design encompasses traditional human–computer interaction (HCI) design, and extends it by addressing all aspects of a product or service as perceived by users. | As...
