My precious saviour, thank You for saving me ! Lord give me the strength to get through
this day. Give me peace, patience and revelation.
I have to be extremely focused today. I have tons of things on my plate. A busy workday and co-facilitating Life Group
tonight. I have a desk full of
assignments and challenges, nothing out of the usual, it is a very familiar
challenge. My career is of assessing
human behaviors and dynamics, then summarizing, put it into a narrative and
then developing a plan of action. To do
this I have to gather info from various people; family, client, other treatment
facilities, funders, etc. I have to
determine the level of care and if it meets the criteria for our residential
program. Intake is the gatekeeper/entry
for referrals. Boy do we have deadlines,
guidelines, polices and procedures, SOPs.
But every job has them. In doing
this work I have assess to child abuse and trauma on a daily. God put me here for a reason and it has been
a very long season. Some say my skill
set is working with AA families which is about an 85% population. I do have a calming ability, they usually give
the tough calls to me. I work to give
the parents an understanding of the mental health world and how it relates to
their children and families and how to achieve their goals. On a face to face most families are relieved
to see an AA therapist step in and will say so.
Not to say I give them a break or let them off the hook, but they feel I
understand the Black family. They also
deep down inside know if there is game I will recognize it. I work skillfully to offer interventions and
strategies for success without humiliating or judging. I see
with eyes of experience because my family is as dysfunctional as the next. I work not to judge first, but I feel I have
a good discernment for people who are a bit messy J I work real hard to treat each and every
mother, single mother, single dad, grandma as I would like a professional to
treat my family. So I am here because
God put me here to help children/families.
Again I say God put me here and I am here to help
children/families. On a busy day like
today I needed to remind myself why I am here J
I’m off break now.
See ya
