Reflecting Teams and Microcounseling in Beginning Counselor Training: Practice in Collaboration

Abstract

This study examined the integration of the Reflecting Team Method (T. Andersen, 1991) and the Microcounseling Model (A. E. Ivey & M. B. Ivey, 2003) as a collaborative counselor training option. Reflecting team reflections, client–counselor role plays, and feedback from master's‐level students were transcribed and analyzed for themes; 10 themes were identified.
