Assignment Title: Counseling Role Play
What I Learned: In this assignment I practiced my motivational interviewing skills while being filmed to later critique myself. I learned how to implement all 10 steps of an efficient counseling appointment. I was also provided the opportunity to critically critique my skills and methods.
Reflection to Assignment: This assignment helped me use the skills I have learned in my counseling class to perform a role-play on a real life situation. It allowed me to truly test my counseling skills and note areas of improvement.
Relevance to the profession: Continuous practicing in motivational interviewing is of the upmost importance for developing new counseling strategies for the nutrition professional. In addition, having the ability to critically critique oneself is key for developing new skill sets. To have an effective counseling session, the nutrition professional must remain up to date in all areas of counseling and feel confident executing it.
