It was an inspiring night for all of us. The presence of Dr. Biles & Ms. Eileen was really superb! The analogy given by the both of them in terms of counselling was down to earth. To me, both of them are the angels from God sent. They came to Msia to share their knowledge with Malaysians. It's my first time meeting Ms. Eileen, she's an Italian, living in U.S. A crisis intervension expert, a music therapist, a good friend of Dr. Biles, a great counsellor and i love her learning attitude.
We met Dr. Biles for quite a few times, she's a respectful mentor of ours. :) Her spirit in spreading the seeds of love and knowledge really motivates me to elevate my mission in life. The selfless characteristic makes me feel that the world is indeed beautiful with people like her :) She is forever pleasant to me. Her hug really warmed me, just like a mummy to us. She has 9 children, mind u, only 2 are biological, the rest are adopted. I've got a shock when i heard that. We shall always share good things with others =) Never ever fail the essence of sharing :)
As a counsellor, far more often we concern a lot on the approach stated in the text. In our education, we're taught to have a counselling approach. That night was an eye-opener for me. Both the experts said approach is always the next thing as a counsellor. Being a counsellor, your hand is like a rope. When a person is in danger, you throw the rope to the person and grab that person out. Just like your best friend, what he/she needs is very simple. Our best friend simply needs our ears and heart. Isn't it simple and precise? Same goes to the r'ship with client and counsellor. Client wants a listening ears and a truthful heart.
Supposed to be a formal discussion on the upcoming National Counselling Conference and research discussion, we ended up listening and sharing of experiences :)
a group pic with all of us at wee hour :) almost 12am @_@" and we gotta work the next day too O_O so happening right...
