Reflective practice is essential for effective practice in medicine, healthcare, education, and therapy / counseling. It can enable practitioners to understand their disasters and successes and learn from them. This method enables deep critical yet sympathetic questioning and learning from colleagues, and transforms continuing professional development as well as initial training and education.
Practice can be intensely rewarding, yet deeply demanding. Clients, patients and colleagues receive the best energy and attention, but what of the practitioner? Writing exploratively and expressively, and discussing these writings, can offer time and space to reflect deeply and effectively, reaching parts other courses don?t. Trust and confidence in effective dynamic collegial communication is facilitated.
This method facilitates deep and effective reflection upon practice and related issues.
