Unconditional Positive Regard
Unconditional Positive Regard is a term that I first heard ages ago, but we’ve been discussing it in the Certificate IV in Mental Health. I only have two more days of on-site training, then the assessments and I’ve finished. The relationship between a professional and a client is complex, bounded by ethical guidelines on one [...]

Hi Ho Hi Ho
It’s back to work we go. On Monday, my first day back it was ridiculously hot. Thankfully the air conditioning worked as I heard that the AC in a friend’s building broke down. On second thoughts, she got to go home… On Monday night the cool change came through, so things were a bit more [...]

leaving on a jet plane!
Actually, I’m not sure what kind of plane it is, but I’m heading off to Canberra this afternoon for a work conference. I’m very excited about this, but equally reluctant to leave my little family behind. I’ll be back on Tuesday afternoon, see you then!

The tree in the sky!
I have been in the city for training, this is the 3rd of 4 two day sessions, if that makes sense? Around the training venue, new apartment buildings are being built, so it has been interesting to see the progress over the past two months. One thing we noticed was that on top of one [...]

My day in links…
Today was a work training day, held at the Adelaide Bowling Club. I suppose it wasn’t so much about training, but it was a brainstorming session on funding outcomes. It was great as it helped our fledgling team solidify and clarify what we want our outcomes to be in the next 12-18 months. It was [...]

First day of work!
A was still not well today, so he stayed at home with Willow. She didn’t throw up today and ate toast and dry biscuits and drank water and Gastrolite. When I got home, she had perked up considerably. I was looking forward to today, the start of a new job with a new program means [...]
