Mentorship
question: Describe your experience in how you found your mentorship? If you haven't found one yet, describe your
experience so far in the search of a mentor.
The way I found
my mentor Flor Martinez, was I knew her as a close family friend. I would
constantly ask her questions about psychology and her responses were precise. We
would even have long conversations about certain topic of Psychology, I knew
some background of it so we were able to go on. But, I also didn’t want to just
base my knowledge off our conversations to determine if she would be my mentor.
So, I asked questions like where she went to school, what degree she had in the
field, and finding out where she currently works. I had found out she has a
master’s degree and has been in this profession for years, with a job with the
County of San Bernando. I knew she was a great choice for my mentor and I could
trust her.

Research
question: What has been your most important article you have read so far and
why?
All the articles
I have been reading are equally important and to choose is tough decision. But,
if I were to pick one it would be “Anxiety Disorders: A Guide for Integrating
Psychopharmacology and Psychotherapy” by Stephen M. Stahl and Bret A.
Moore. The reason is because it goes into greater detail about therapy and how it
started. It even goes more into detail how it was spread out to different
branches and it wasn’t just one thing. Then, it starts to say with any medication
that you should go to therapy. Therapy helps keep control of the medication so
worst symptoms don’t show up and it also keeps a client taking their
medication. It gives an example of taking antidepressants and how thoughts of suicide
always occur when taking them. But, with the help of therapy it could save
someone life.
