The Ventura County Office of Education provides training and refreshers for CPI training for Nonviolent Crisis Intervention.

My journey began when The Deron School hired me as a paraprofessional. I learned so much about myself in a classroom setting of diverse learners.

I agree, a counselor must be knowledgeable in treating abuse victims. Also, the counselor should be skilled in several techniques, because using only one technique might not be as helpful. In addition, the counselor needs to understand the context, which the abuse occurred, because there might be other deficits (Gladding, 2015). Therefore, by the counselor being skilled and different techniques in treating abuse, will allow them treating other issues. When working with a victim of abuse, the counselor should have a safely plan for the victim.

For the first four days, I tracked and recorded the number of times I was biting my nails during a half-hour time span and what situational factors and stimuli caused me to do this. Following the first four days, the next four days I chose a positive reinforcer that would help me from biting my nails.
Strength of the therapy Behavioral therapy is a treatment that helps to change a positive way to think about a situation. In another way, it also called as behavioral modification or cognitive behavioral therapy. In this therapy, patients can learn some skills for the rest of their lives because it can involve personal thinking, changing their own concepts, and changing the behaviors.

They are not just carefree novelty seekers and risk takers, but they are also uniquely vulnerable to anxiety and have a hard time learning to be unafraid of passing dangers (Friedman, 2014).
Behavior therapy has shown its strengths in various aspects. Firstly, behavior therapist consist large range of behavioral techniques at the disposal (Corey, 2013). For behavior therapist, they are subjected to wide variety of methods which could be used to tackle with different clients’ problems, and this also means that behavior therapists are able to help their clients efficiently and effectively.
