Assignment task: Consider the following quote from the AuCoin Lee article:
Self in relation to interventions are constant with feminist and constructionist theories; mirroring is consonant with self-psychology; the value of a reflective, non-judgemental stance is consonant with psychodynamic theory, active behavioral theories; while other expressive techniques are consonant with a range of psychodynamic and narrative therapies (p. 76).
1. Why do you think AuCoin Lee believes self-in relation interventions are consonant with feminist and constructionist theories? Present points that support this view.
2. As a social worker using the Halcyon Model, what advantages and challenges do you see?
