each study. Working on the literature review for this exemplar made me a critical consumer of
research, and taught me that I should evaluate studies for myself rather than assuming a summary
of their findings will apply to all other situations.
Conclusion
Creating a comprehensive group counseling curriculum was one of the most enjoyable
projects I had the opportunity to complete. Having a lot of freedom in terms of our topic and
lessons meant that I could combine evidence-based stress-relievers with creative and engaging
activities in the ways I thought were most effective.
Developing this curriculum taught me that the responsibilities of the facilitator start much
earlier than the first day of group. Although there are many curriculums out there for group
facilitators to use, not every curriculum fits all situations. Tailoring group curriculum to fit the
needs of the school will ensure than students get the most out of their time with the group. In
addition to reviewing and modifying group curriculum, I also learned that facilitators must form
groups carefully with group dynamics in mind.
Group counseling has many benefits; reaching more students at a time and letting them
learn from and support each other make it a valuable tool for all counselors. With the knowledge
I have gained through the Theory and Process of Group Counseling class and creating this
curriculum, I am confident that I will be able to utilize groups to help my students succeed.
