Think of the type of client you might have the most difficulty working with. Then become this client in a role play with one other student. Have your partner attempt to counsel you. After you have had a chance to be the client, reverse roles and you become the counselor. In small groups discuss any possible experiences you have had with burnout, what contributed to it, and what helped you to address this condition. Discuss some possible causes of professional burnout, and brainstorm ways of preventing or minimizing it.
