Today, I had my very first sit down meeting with my mentor Dr. Rosemary Vega. I was a little nervous at the beginning because I wasn't sure how our first meeting would go, but it went great! It has been finalized that I will accumulate my hours by running a support group of about 5-7 high school seniors. In the support group we'll be discussing the stresses of senior year and how we could cope with such stresses. Dr. Vega's role as a mentor will be helping me run these groups through the helpful handouts she has given me. These handouts are very helpful because they'll help us understand how to express our feelings and they give us an inside on how we're reacting to the changes we're facing this year. Dr. Vega and I also discussed how successful we think this support group will go, I'm excited to start!
One hour down, twenty-four to go!
