I’ve been reflecting on the past few days and even these words cannot express every thought I have had this week. Before I said anything on social media I went to the protest in Lafayette. Witnessing peaceful protest for the first time my life.
This was my exact thought! Being in the career for the past 3 years, but now having to put evidence based practice and specific interventions that work best together makes it a little more challenging! #SWKD600IUPUI
#SWKD600IUPUI I've been teaching people how to manage anxiety for a long time, but I've been surprised at how challenging it's been to create a module to teach it. I've always taught experientially, breaking down the steps has illustrated how much I take for granted.
Creating an online social group is harder than you think! 🤯 who knew you needed to create assessments for your interventions?! Although I feel like you are able to create a community that is just as affective online as in person! #SWKD600IUPUI
There are so many alternatives to "in person" support groups now days, and I'm so excited to see people are able to get a feel for these online supports before fully committing to something that can be scary! #SWKD600IUPUI
After exploring the depression psychoeducational group, I realized that there is a huge online community full of support. I love that you can post what goals you are working towards and it allows others to support your goal! #SWKD600IUPUI
How reassuring to find online support groups for those struggling with anxiety. So often people have anxiety over something like attending group with new people, so by making online communities available people are able to feel supported while gaining tools. #SWKD600IUPUI
A neat platform that professionals at U of Colombia have decided to use, tagging #MacroSW, these informational sessions talk about all things Macro social work, which our group identified as a weakness of online SW programs #D600IUSSW

I too felt individual therapy was a great option for all but then I think of the dysfunction all because of communication lacking specifically with the adults. #SWKD600IUPUI
#SWKD600IUPUI I found this experience acting as a social worker to the characters of LMS to be really difficult. I've worked in a TF-CBT model for almost 3 years now and I probably would have recommended individual sessions for this family instead of group.
Sometimes adults struggle to communicate their needs very similar to children, and that’s when we see behaviors. All behaviors have functions, I like that you point out you opinion on the miscommunication #SWKD600IUPUI
Leading little miss sunshine group therapy was nerve wrecking prior to starting. I wanted to say the right things. but I still catch myself doing too much advice giving, rather than facilitating. Oops #SWKD600IUPUI
