DeCino, Daniel A.; Waalkes, Phillip L.; McKibben, W. Bradley
Journal of School Counseling, v17 n3 2019
School counselors can write letters to themselves to practice self-reflection and enhance learning from experience. Using inductive and deductive content analysis, we analyzed how twelve school counselors used letters to themselves to reflect on their legal experiences. In their letters, participants demonstrated a wide range of depth in dimensions of self-reflection. Implications for future and current school counselors' self-reflective practices are provided.
