Write and submit your own example of a meaning reflection.

Submit your example using helper/client dialogue.  Focus specifically on the helpers reflection.  Write a few sentences of client dialogue, followed by a helper reflection.  Try to choose a more complex meaning.  Remember, concise, surface level reflection of facts is a paraphrase.   A meaning reflection instead focuses much deeper.  These are themes or ideas that the client may not even recognize clearly themselves.  Fears, motivations, attitudes, beliefs, patterns of behaviors, etc. are all food for meaning reflections.

Avoid providing unnecessary dialogue that isn’t directly linked to the reflection.
