I love how you dealt with scenario 3. You helped him completely. You saved a life. If only all professionals could learn from this. U could have been a useful Interrogator ...lolol

SOOOOOO helpful thaank you

[@fables4564]

The therapist did great but the only criticism I would give is that because there is a lot of positive affirmations a client may interpret this as a therapist being "fake".

[@grantknott]

Fables 456 I agree. One time is when she said that Stephanie was a great name for her cat. You’ve got to be joking woman. It’s one of the worst names I’ve ever heard for a cat

[@CharlottesWeb27]

Grant Knott she didn't say Stephanie, I believe she said Persephone, which is a pretty unusual name for a cat!

[@sarahwalls7621]

You’re awesome

[@Steffy2122]

Wow Your 👏 A TRUE PROFESSIONAL!!!!!! IM crying I wish you could help me. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@sereneamani1713]

The example of the client being upset about her food inspired mixed feelings about the clinician's response. Albeit, the client's associating the incident to "dog food" is clinically significant, relating to that aspect first is interesting (aka strange). Is there a cultural or personal aspect present? The idea of someone touching my food in my brief absence and without permission is IMHO quite unacceptable, unsanitary, and disrespectful in and of itself. Is that an acceptable act to some?

I am on the Board of Clinton County DD. Please send my certificate to them. My comment is that I thought Dr. Markoff did a great job. I picked up on her comment about the patient being a "kid " but she addressed it in the debrief. Thanks Joan Burge

8:20 ...aaaaand I'm already tapping out.
The way she's making judgements about the Client is privileged. She's assuming too much. This is *secondary trauma.*
8:41 ...aaaaand I'm done!
She said she didn't want to talk about it.
jfc, didn't the "Professional" hear her?
wtf!
I am looking for Trauma Informed Care that doesn't become *secondary trauma!*
I guess I'm gonna _keep lookin'!_

[@ninifire4282]

1. I have suffered an immense amount of secondary trauma from counselors. It is insane the amount of times I have had to rely on myself to help myself when professionals did immense damage to me.
2. I see none of that here. I'm thinking maybe you've been hurt a lot and could see it that way. If so, I'm so sorry about how people have treated you. I hope you find what you're looking for.
3. I watched the whole thing and realized the questions were part of an "interview" intake and the client knew this. The therapist nudged her, sometimes people who don't want to talk about it need some gentle nudging. But once client said no again, therapist backed off and asked her about her cat to calm her down and help her to take a break so she could finish the interview to help her. Cannot help her without asking questions. But she reassessed and tried not to push too deeply after she found out what was going on for the client.
4. at 20:34 there is a scenario debrief where she explains her choices. "it is important before asking questions about trauma to explain to client why you're doing that.. you also want to give client real control over what she shares... there is a lot I do to help that happen. I tell her she can refuse to answer or take a break. When I do that some
clinicians say 'oh no you'll never get through the intake in time' but the thing is when you're doing this its more important to create a safe relationship than to meet deadlines..." go and listen to the rest.

[@SuperMrsslimshady]

horrible

[@wolfiemedia]

Absolutely crap. Ask a question and then give her multiple choices that you come up with? Was it ummm a family member, was it a stranger, orrrrrrrr? Let HER answer. This is all assumptive and suggestive “interviewing” so far. Turned off at 9 mins, couldn’t bear it.

[@dougbowles6672]

I thought that about that particular section myself. But, there were very helpful elements in this video. See the good as well.

[@wolfiemedia]

I didn’t say there was no good?…more assumptions 👏🏻
