Vanessa Joy is one of the counselee that assigned to me.

Its a pleasure to experience how

to be a counselor in one person, because it is your obligation to guide them or help them to
realize the thing that they need to do once they open to you a serious problem that they
experience.
As I observed and conclude base on what she shared to me about her life she is a
responsible one. In their family her mother is the only one that support her and her two brothers
to their studies. She also shared to me that in her high school days she experienced to have home
schooling because of her situation, there are times that she is always send to the hospital because
of her situation, according to the findings of the doctor, that it is good for her to sent in the
hospital in an early time because if it is not, her sick will go to epilepsy, as what my mother
condition now. I recommend to her that she need to relax sometimes and she need to have
enough time to sleep because like my mother, when she is very tired and have no enough sleep
and specially when she is stressed she is sinusumpong and we dont know what to do and it is
really dangerous specially when she bite her tongue, its been 16 years when she started to have
that sick, in goodness of god its almost 3 years the last when she is sinumpong, but her
maintenance medicine has side effect specially in the brain, sometimes she speak unclear words
and we dont understand what shes saying. But know, Vanessa tell me that she is a member of
choir, player of volleyball and officer of one of the organization, which is the Kanlungan. It is
good for her that even though she is sick she still can do a lot of things like that, and in terms of
time management, she can do those things that cannot affect her studies.
