PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS

1. Giving feedback is a skill that might feel awkward at first because it is probably something you have not done before.  On two different occasions, think about what you might say if you were going to give feedback.  Write down your ideas about what you could say to give feedback and the other person not get offended or become defensive.

2.  Think about a time in your life when you were in a professional setting and the professional shared something very private with you.  I want you to think of how uncomfortable that made you feel and you probably thought “This is more than I want to know about this person” or maybe “Am I supposed to something to help him/her?”  Do you think the self-disclosure would change your relationship with the professional person?  Explain how self-disclosure could be so detrimental to your client.

***Please remember to use APA (no first person, use in-text citations and a scholarly reference). ***
