Building a Self-Reflective Practice

School of Medicine

Second year M.G.C. students will meet as a group in the Fall and Spring semesters for group supervision. The weekly one-hour sessions will be moderated by a counseling professional who is independent of the M.G.C. program. Transition to more peer-directed conversations will be encouraged as students advance through the program. Skills introduced in GC 7600 will be practices and layered with topics of life management through self-care, professional burnout in a helping profession, understanding one's role in the healthcare team and finding a professional self. Sessions will be confidential and require attendance, a reflective writing component and participation in discussion forums, for this pass/fail class. Pre-requisite: GC 7600
