Reconalla, Mat- Guidance and Counseling Educ-15 Instructor CAR- MaEd in Guidance & Counseling Submitted by: Jefty C. Daligdig, BEED-IV Student October 22, 2013 Guidance and Counseling (script for counselling) Hai, I am Jefty C. Daligdig. I took up Bachelor of Elementary Education at North Davao Colleges. Today, I acted the role of a counselor. This video is the application of various counseling technique/s in which I have learned through the educ.15- Guidance and Counseling under prof. Moses P. Reconalla. As a counselor in this video, I help my counselee on her problem regarding with his girlfriend whose killing herself after they broke up. The counselee is very guilty about his girlfriend killing. Here is the counseling session I made with this type of problem. Chris: Hello sir, Good morning! SchPsy: Hello good morning, have a sit Chris Chris: Thank you sir SchPsy: I want you to know how sorry I am for your loss. How are you doing? Chris: OK, I guess. I just can’t seem to stop thinking about Susan killing herself. SchPsy: I understand it must be real painful to lose someone you care about. Can you tell me some moreabout your feelings? Chris: I just can’t help thinking that if it wasn’t for me, Susan will still be alive right now. I just can’t live with the guilt. SchPsy: So not only are you dealing withthe sudden death of Susan, but you are also feeling real guilty? Chris: Yes (Chris begins to cry). SchPsy: You know Chris, sometimes when people have experienced a sudden lose and feel as you do, they think of suicide. Is this something you have thought about? Chris: (Chris stops crying, pauses, and tentatively says). Yes. SchPsy: I think I understand, but can you tell me some more about what it is that has lead you to think about suicide? Chris: I just can’t live with this guilt. Everyone is looking at me. They know that I had broken up with Susan. Noone, except you, will talk to me. I’m sure everyone hates me and wishes I were dead. I might as well do them a favor. SchPsy: So then you are really feeling alone right now. You are thinking that you are being blamed for Susan’s death. Chris: You got that right (Chris’ tears have now turned tosome anger). I’ll show them. SchPsy: What do you mean “I’ll show them”? Chris: If I kill myself they will nothave me to kickaround any more! [I have identified that Chris is feeling very guilty about Susan’s death, and feels isolated and alone. He is also feeling that everyone is blaming him for Susan’s death (which may or may not be true). I know that he has thoughts of suicide, but need to assess his risk of engaging in such behavior.] Assess the Degree of Suicide Risk SchPsy: Chris, you mentioned that you think suicide is a way to cope with the feelings and problem generated by Susan’s death. Do you have a plan? How would you go about killing yourself? Chris: Yes, I could do it with my car SchPsy: Have you thought about when you would do it? Chris: Yes, I was planning to get drunk and drive off the bridge tonight. SchPsy: So the pain feels so intense you are thinking of crashing your car off the bridge tonight. Chris: Yes, SchPsy: Have you ever tried to talk to anyone about this pain before? Chris: I was thinking about going to my old therapist, but I don’t even know if she is still around. It has been over a year since I last saw her. SchPsy: What were you seeing the therapist for? Chris: Depression. SchPsy: Chris, have you ever tried anything like this before? Chris: No SchPsy: Is theirany one you can talkto about this. Anyone who you think could help you solve these problems. Chris: No (Chris slums into his chair,the anger has dissolved, and he again begins to sob). [Chris has a plan, he has the means to carry it out, and he has a pretty immediate time frame for engaging in suicidal behavior. He is in intense emotional pain and feeling extreme guilt. While he has no prior suicidal behavior himself, the fact that Susan has modeled such as a problem solving strategy places him at increased risk. Finally, I have learned Chris is unable to identify any resources that can move him from a suicide orientation and that he has a history of depression. I determine his risk for suicide is High.] Take Action to Reduce the Suicide Risk SchPsy: Chris, I know it hurts a lot rightnow and it seems like there is no way out, but I believe that I canhelp you, if you let me. Chris: What can you do (a hint of anger returns to Chris’ voice)? I’m ready to leave now. SchPsy: Chris, we need to get some help right now. How would you like to proceed? Chris: I’m done with all of this? SchPsy: OK, Chris I understand. You see no hope. But I do. You need to come with me right now (my voice is compassionate, but firm). In the video you have just watched and witnessed, I used the counselor- centered approach because I gave my counselee an advice and enlightened his mind not to commit suicidal action. Once again, I am Jefty C. Daligdig, taking up Bachelor of Elementary Education at North Davao Colleges Panabo City and a student of educ.15 Guidance and Counseling. Thank you so much for watching my video. God Bless!!!!!
