words, discuss your decision to enter the counseling profession. Explore why you believe
licensure as a professional counselor is important. Finally, consider groups or specific
mental health concerns you would find most challenging as a counselor I have included an attachment of things to include in this paper. Just follow the provided discussion points and add to as needed. need to sound professional and very thorough.

<

<br />1) How might these organizations help decrease personal biases?
<

<br />2) Are there any suggestions on the website that discuss ethical considerations or special considerations when working with special groups that have ethical undercurrents? For example, when working with disabled individuals using language and terminology that is affirming and supportive of their “abilities” rather than “disabilities” would lend to the ethic of beneficence.
<

<br />3) How would involvement in one of these organizations contribute to following the ACA Code of Ethics standards: A.1.d, A.2.c, A.1.a, A.4.a, A.4.b, and A.7.a?

Profile Analysis Guidelines – EPQ
Overview
The Profile Analysis is intended to provide greater self-awareness through interpreting the results of a self-assessment tool and using it to analyze your own behavior. This analysis will serve as the basis for an action plan for improving your negotiating effectiveness. It fits the application and analysis aspects of Bloom’s learning taxonomy.
Formatting requirements
The format is the same as the MDI profile analysis. The paper is to be 3 – 4 pages, single-spaced, block format, 12 point font Times Roman, well proofread, and organized. I would strongly advise effective use of formatting, white space, headings, and concise, focused paragraphs to enhance the paper’s focus and flow. The easier the paper is to digest the better the score.
Profile Analysis content:
For the assigned profile:
1) Draw the Ethical Position Questionnaire Chart (looks like a plus sign) and label the axes and the 4 quadrants. You do not need to define the quadrants or the I and R dimensions. Plot your scores in the appropriate location.
2) Interpret what these scores say about your approach to managing conflict.
1. a) Do you have a strong orientation (more extreme scores on both dimensions 1-3 or 7-9)? Discuss how that is a dominant approach you use.
2. b) Or, do you have more mid-range scores (4-6) thus tending to have a preferred approach yet may consider things or shift to the perspective of the neighboring quadrant?
3. c) Is there a pattern in which more core issues are examined with one orientation and less core issues (values) are examined from a different perspective?
4. d) Other observations if any…..
3) State whether you agree or disagree with the assessment.
4) Provide (a) specific personal example(s) to support your agreement or disagreement. This should NOT be a simple restating of the definition. It needs to tell a who, what, how story. You may use the in –class activity (“The Cheating Case”) or, better yet, use this to analyze how you are handling your selected issue for the Problem Analysis Paper.
5) Discuss 2 specific new behaviors and/or ways of thinking that you have identified due to this analysis. This should include examples of/actions on how you plan to implement the new thinking/behavior.

Please do each part separately
PART 1
Motivation and You
Why do people do what they do? How does that relate to your experience with your academic pursuits? Based on your research in addition to your assigned readings, assess what continues to motivate you even when faced with academic, professional, and personal challenges. Do you address these challenges differently? Is your motivation extrinsic or intrinsic, or perhaps a combination of both? Discuss your own experience.

Use the Internet to research and read two articles about intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and incentives relative to team performance
PART 2
Intrinsic Versus Extrinsic Motivation
In regard to intrinsic versus extrinsic motivation, is it possible for an individual’s motivation to shift from intrinsic to extrinsic, or extrinsic to intrinsic? Do all theories and models of motivation account for change in motivation? If so, how? Include in your discussion an example of a motivational theory that supports your position. Be sure to base your response on evidence-based research
