dc.description.abstract | This report discusses my experiences as a Master of Social Work (MSW) practicum student from University of Regina at a community agency, Family Service Regina (FSR). An overview of the agency and its Teen Parent Program are included in the report. Formal individual counselling and group work were incorporated in the practicum placement, as well as support work and community presentations, through the Teen Parent Program. Theories implemented in individual counselling sessions and the processes of facilitating a ten week “When Love Hurts” group are discussed. These theories are feminist approach, client-centered approach, solution-focused brief therapy, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy. Approaches used in above mentioned practicum experiences will be discussed in relation to ideology, theory, values, ethics, relationships, skills and strategies. The report ends with a brief discussion on empowerment and conclusions in relation to visions for future work as a social worker. | en_US |
