This course provides an overview of the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are required for individuals entering the field of Peer Counseling.  The individual role of peer counselor is defined, as well as how the peer counselor integrates into a multidisciplinary team.  The core values of psychosocial rehabilitation and recovery are reviewed, and students will identify their strengths in relationship to these values.  Core skills are defined and demonstrated, such as self-management (using Mary Ellen Copeland 146s Wellness Recovery Action Plan), advocacy, boundaries and working from a strengths perspective.  In addition, the student learns basic documentation skills and reviews confidentiality regulations under HIPAA.
