REFLECTION JOURNAL TEMPLATE
Please answer the following for each Reflection Journal Assignment:
(a) What 3 key ideas have you gained from the Modules: Weeks’ materials since your last
Reflection Journal, and why are these ideas important?
(b) What Christian worldview integration research or scholarly perspective from biblical or
Christian counseling experts relate to what you have learned from the course material?
Reflection Journal 1
Modules 1 – 4: Weeks 1 – 4
As noted in the course, you do not have to read and review all 3 treatment modalities in the first
4 Modules: Weeks (Prolonged Exposure Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Eye Movement
Desensitization and Reprocessing) for Reflection Journal 1, but rather you choose the model you
want to really focus on learning. This means you read that text for the treatment modality you
have chosen to learn about and review the materials in the folder for that model. The other
materials on the other treatment models will be supplementary for you. You might like to review
those also, or wait to review them after the course, but the goal is for you to substantively
develop your skills in at least 1 empirically supported model. The treatment modality you are
focusing on will be the focus of your first Reflection Journal.
Reflection Journal 2
Modules 5 – 6: Weeks 5 – 6
Reflection Journal 3
Modules 7 – 8: Weeks 7 – 8
For Modules 5 – 8: Weeks 5 – 8, you will continue with the assigned readings on the Course
Schedule and read the information in each module in addition to the Christian Worldview
Resources folder. You can continue to discuss how the main theory of the 3, Prolonged Exposure
Cognitive Processing Therapy, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing relate to the
learning in Modules 5 – 8: Weeks 5 – 8, or you may focus exclusively on the new content you
are learning in these modules. Here, the goal is for you to learn in-depth about the modalities you
are most interested in and synthesize the learning to tie into the final project in which you will
discuss how the learning in the course regarding the major and evidence based theories in
treating trauma and how these might fit with your current theory of counseling.
