While working with Agneshka, her counselor can best help her by doing the following: Show respect for Agneshka’s thinking and keep in mind that promoting reflective thinking needs to be done in a supportive atmosphere. Encourage Agneshka to gather necessary information about a problem she is facing, evaluate the quality of the information she retrieves, and draw a conclusion based on evaluated facts. Assist Agneshka in concretely examining the assumptions she is using in making her decision about issues she is facing. Lastly, pay attention to Agneshka’s culture and how this may be influencing her thinking and decision making. Agneshka and her counselor, besides working on already established goals, can also explore Agneshka’s identity and facilitate a deeper self-understanding in order for Agneshka to navigate her relationships in a more meaningful and intentional manner.
