Throughout the course, you have studied and written about several counseling theories that are used in the counseling profession. In this PowerPoint presentation, select one counseling theory you see yourself being most effective in, and create a 7-10-slide presentation that includes the following:

The founding theorists and a description of how the theory was developed Major concepts for selected theory Standard interventions for selected theory How you personally identify with the concepts of this theory How you can grow as a counseling student to use this theory most effectively by the time you reach practicum Strengths and limitations when applying this theory to diverse client populations Select three dispositions from the GCU Counselor Dispositions or the Professional Dispositions of Learners documents, and explain how this theory can help you utilize these concepts in your personal counseling approach. Include the ACA or ASCA Code of Ethics and six scholarly references beyond the course textbook in your presentation.

Title slide and reference slide are not included in the slide count. Include speaker notes below each content-related slide that represent what would be said if giving the presentation in person. Expand upon the information included in the slide and do not simply restate it. Please ensure the speaker notes include a minimum of 150 words.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
