SI Group Therapy
The challenges that were presented in group therapy for children have changed my attitude about the effectiveness of this type of approach. I may think twice before I give a child with SI group therapy. Also, when developing an intervention for a child with SI, I may think I know what is best for the child. However, if I have not been keeping up with the latest research my intervention will not be as effective. Therefore, I will make sure I keep up to date with any researcher in this field to ensure that my intervention is informed by the growing knowledge base.
