Assignment
In this module, you reviewed counseling groups for the various stages of human development (childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age). Interventions and expectations vary greatly throughout each stage of development; therefore, it is beneficial to obtain practical knowledge of each developmental stage in order to be an effective group counselor.
Tasks:
In a minimum of 200 words, post to the Discussion Area your responses to the following:
• Select one stage of human development and discuss strategies for working with this population in groups.
• Include personal reflections related to how well you think you would work with this population in a group.
• List some of the anticipated challenges working with this population in a group. What strategies would you use to overcome these challenges?
Support your rationale and analysis by using at least two resources from professional literature in your response. Professional literature may include the Argosy University online library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (websites ending in .edu or .gov).
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
