Gottstein's Letter To Parents
Rachel and Barney Gottstein
How are you? How are the children and family? How was Purim? Did you celebrate with your close family? I hope that everything is going well with you and with your family. It's been more than three months since my last letter to you, and there are many things that I would like to share with you.
First of all I am now in the exam period of the first semester. It is a bit of a stressful period with lots of papers and assignments that we need to complete. Once this period will come to an end I will start the second and last semester of my master's degree studies. As I wrote to you in the previous letter, I began to treat patients in the department of psychological medicine in Schneider Hospital. This practical training is …show more content…
empowering, and it gives me many tools as part of my training process to become a psychologist.
I treat children and adolescence every week, and once in two weeks I meet with the patient's parents for a parental guidance. The encounter with the children exposes me to a variety of emotional difficulties that they are dealing with. The personal acquaintance with the patients provides me the opportunity to become exposed to their past experience, environmental influences and the coping method they develop to overcome their difficulties. In addition, the paternal guidance provides me the opportunity to get to know the parents and the way they see the difficulties of their children. In addition, I can also give them practical and emotional tools to cope with these difficulties. I must note that the therapeutic process is causing many emotions for me as well, and I am learning to get to know and learn about myself much better. It is an opportunity for me to identity the strengths and difficulties within me to be able to treat someone else correctly. In addition to the practical training, I am continuing my research for my thesis on the development of compassion within
preschool children. I enjoy the studies, and I feel like I am developing professionally in a good and gradual manner. While studying I am also working once a week as a guide at a preschool center for children in the first grade. I enjoy my work with the children, and I feel that it fulfills me, and I am also getting a lot back.
On this opportunity I would like to thank you again for the accompaniment and support throughout this most significant and challenging period of my life. I thank you very much for believing in me, doing your best to make things easier for me, and for helping me during this time. I wish that you will get something back for every sponsorship that you provide, and for everything you give for someone else.
I wish you lots of health and a life filled with satisfaction and meaning.
With great appreciation,
Selamavit
