The first session, Behind the Case, opened with a discussion on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), presented by ๐๐ฌ. ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ญ-๐๐ข๐๐จ๐๐๐ฆ๐จ๐ฌ, ๐๐๐, highlighting how structured therapeutic approaches are applied in real-life practice. Rather than being used rigidly, CBT was presented as a framework that is adapted based on the clientโs experiences, needs, and context. This perspective was grounded in her emphasis that therapy must remain responsive to the realities of the individual being served.
This was further deepened through the discussion presented by ๐๐ซ. ๐๐จ๐ก๐ง ๐๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ฅ ๐. ๐๐๐ฌ๐ช๐ฎ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ฌ, ๐๐๐๐ ๐, ๐๐๐๐, ๐๐ (๐๐๐), where he emphasized: "๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ ๐จ๐ ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ซ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ ๐ก๐ฎ๐ฆ๐๐ง." This reminder reframed counseling not just as technique, but as presence, where understanding is shaped by empathy, awareness, and the ability to meet people where they are. He further highlighted how real cases in counseling and rehabilitation are understood through multiple layers of context, including values, culture, lived experiences, and behavior, rather than isolated symptoms or labels.
Building from this foundation, the second session transitioned into ๐๐ฌ๐ฒ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐จg๐ข๐๐๐ฅ ๐

Here, the focus shifted to immediate, practical response, how support is offered in moments of distress with clarity, care, and appropriateness. As he emphasized during the session, "๐๐ค ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐จ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐๐ฃ๐๐ช๐ง๐ ๐๐ช๐ง๐ฃ๐๐ฃ๐" -๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ค๐ง ๐๐ง๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ก, reflecting the responsibility and emotional demand that comes with helping others carry their experiences.
Together, the Seminar-Workshop underscored a central idea: psychology is not only understood through concepts, but through practice, where every case requires attention to context, humanity, and thoughtful response.
