You’re a what?

Peer support specialist Allen Chen

Baren Berg was leading a group therapy session when a veteran of the Vietnam conflict discussed, for the first time, trauma that he’d experienced decades earlier. “The only reason he opened up was because of my presence,” says Baren, a Marine combat veteran in recovery from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) himself. “He trusted me.”

Trust gained through similar experiences is at the core of Baren’s work as a peer support specialist. He helps fellow veterans transition from the battlefield back into society.

Living with PTSD means that Baren can relate to his peers, like the Vietnam veteran, as they overcome their own challenges.

WHAT PEER SUPPORT SPECIALISTS DO Peer support specialists are mental health workers who have had experience with a psychiatric disorder—such as PTSD, depression, or addiction—and have been trained to counsel or assist others with that condition.

Familiar with the disorder themselves, these specialists act as role models for clients facing similar difficulties.

have health problems, you accompany them to their doctor.”

receiving a passing score on a written exam.

Peer support specialists offer encouragement throughout clients’ recovery. How long specialists work with each client depends on a number of variables, such as how complex the client’s challenges are and the rate of progress toward reaching his or her goals.

Baren says that he typically works with a client for at least 8 weeks. Specialists may have a caseload of 10 to 20 clients at a time, as participants in either group or one-on-one sessions.

Baren has a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a master’s degree in organizational leadership, and certification as a peer support specialist. While working for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Baren noticed a gap between the VA and peer support communities. He put his education to work by starting a business that provides counseling services to veterans. “As a peer support specialist,” he says, “you are able to use your disability as a source of strength.”

HOW TO BECOME ONE

WHAT TO EXPECT

Communication, interpersonal, and activelistening skills are important in providing peer support. And empathy gained from a shared disorder helps specialists build a rapport with clients. Through their own recovery, specialists who have managed the disorder become a role model for their clients.

Peer support specialists may work part time. They may travel to serve their clients at primary care offices, emergency rooms, inpatient facilities, and recovery centers, or they may communicate with clients over the phone or online. And they may be part of a support team of counselors that also includes psychologists and social workers.

Although being empathic is essential, it has limits. “You’re reliving traumatic experiences with your clients, and it’s important to know the boundaries,” says Baren. “Otherwise, you can become emotionally drained.”

On clients’ first visit, a peer support specialist talks to them to assess their needs: what they struggle with and what they want to accomplish. The specialist then uses that information to help his or her clients set goals.

These goals may include finding stable housing or becoming more independent in daily activities.

There are no specific requirements for becoming a peer support specialist. But these workers typically need at least a high school diploma or its equivalent, a history of a mental health disorder that they are comfortable discussing, and certification from a peer support specialist program that includes experiential training.

Next, the peer support specialist schedules sessions to discuss strategies for achieving those goals. These strategies form a support plan, which varies with the client and may include group counseling, employment assistance, or peer-to-peer mentoring. “If they’re agoraphobic, you help them go out into society,” says Baren. “If they

Certification is available through state agencies and support organizations, such as those focusing on mental health or recovery from addiction. Credential requirements vary but may include having paid or volunteer experience in peer support services, completing an approved training program, and

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics does not collect data specifically on peer support specialists. Instead, it counts them among community health workers, of which 51,900 were employed in May 2016. The median annual wage for these workers was $37,330 in May 2016, about the same as the median annual wage of $37,040 for all workers.

As a peer support specialist, Baren feels gratified about improving the lives of others.

“Being a positive influence in the world is very meaningful,” he says. “It’s not about the life you live; it’s about the legacy you leave behind.”

YOU’RE UNDER NO OBLIGATION

USED CAR MILEAGE?

Dear Dave,

I know you advise most people to buy used cars. Do you have a rule of thumb for a mileage limit when it comes to buying a used vehicle?

Our son is about to graduate from law school. He took out a loan to cover the cost, but we’ve always been debt-free and have been paying on it to help him out while he finishes his studies. The balance on the loan right now is around $30,000.

He has a job waiting for him after he graduates, so we’re thinking about telling him it will be his responsibility to finish paying off the loan at that point. Is that wrong?

- Pat Dear Pat, There’s absolutely nothing wrong with a young law school graduate earning a living and paying off his own debt. I hope he appreciates how generous you both have been, but you shouldn’t feel as if you’re obligated to continue making these payments after he finishes school and begins working.

Now, if you decide to pay it off for him as a gift for successfully completing law school — and you’re in a financial position to do so without hurting yourselves or your future — that’s fine, too.

It would be another incredibly generous act. And in my mind, generosity of that magnitude should be met with gratitude and appreciation of equal measure.

If you choose this route, let him know how and why you were able to give him this gift. Don’t hold it over his head or beat him up with it, but stress the importance of being wise with money, saving and investing, and staying out of debt in the future. Let him know if he’ll follow your example, he might be able to do the same kind of thing for his kids someday. That would be a wonderful thing to see, wouldn’t it?

—Dave

NOVEMBER 17, 2017

Dear Dave,

- Paul Dear Paul, No, not really. Sometimes mileage alone can be a good indicator of the quality of a used vehicle, but that’s not always the case. I would also advise doing a little research, and maybe letting a trusted mechanic have a look to determine if there are any issues that might give you trouble soon.

The more inexpensive, and cheaply made a car is, the more likely it becomes that it would be worn down by higher mileage.

Some vehicles start to get a little ragged at 100,000 miles, while others — some of the better makes — are just getting a feel for the road at that point. Of course, a lot depends on your budget, too.

Overall, I would advise you to look for something that has a good reputation, a solid history, and as little mileage as possible. There are good, used cars out there that will last for years!

—Dave

Thanksgiving Weekend: 7 Tips for Spending Less Money and More Time Together Courtesy of EveryDollar.com

There’s just nothing quite like Thanksgiving weekend: a morning prepping turkey and learning Grandma’s famous roll recipe, parades and football on the TV, dinner that tastes of nostalgia, long afternoon naps and . . . mad dashes to the mall.

In between eating and shopping, we’re sharing moments with family as we gather for what may be the first time in months. And better yet, we know Thanksgiving is just the start of the exciting season to come complete with gift-giving and more food!

It’s no wonder we shell out the big bucks for our time together, right? Unless you wake up from your turkey-induced coma with loads of regret from all the sales you indulged in at the mall.

This year try something a little different: Enjoy spending more time with one another while spending less money. We’ll help you! Check out our tips below.

1. Prioritize your holiday plans.

Think beyond Thanksgiving for a moment.

Write out all the things you’d like to do between now and the new year. Include travel, gifts, dinners and parties. Take some time to rank your holiday wish list and be sure your budget reflects your decisions. For instance, you may stay home for Thanksgiving so Santa has the cash to do his thing. Or maybe you’ll choose to trim your Christmas gift budget and spend that money on a Thanksgiving trip to see family or friends.

2. Make a budget and check it twice. Don’t

you know that Santa works year-round?

So should your budget. Now that your holiday priorities are in order you can budget appropriately NOVEMBER 17, 2017 for the coming

10

season. Before you head out the door to grab a few groceries or to snag some good deals, sneak a quick look at your budget. Confirm that what you’re buying fits the budget so you can shop with confidence.

3. Keep things simple. Sometimes in our

Pinterest and Instagram world, it’s easy to forget what Thanksgiving is all about: being thankful. And if we’re honest with ourselves, we all know that people are what really make our lives rich. With this is mind, think about simplifying these two things so you have more time to spend with the people you love: Decorations. Encourage your kids to trace their hands to make paper turkeys for a fun garland. Go outside and gather pinecones from the backyard for a pretty centerpiece. Or stretch a roll of butcher paper across the table with prompts like “I’m thankful for . . .” Place a bunch of markers or crayons on the table for your guests to grab.

Dinner. Swap expensive cast iron pots and fancy china for disposable plates and pans (bonus: easy cleanup!). Focus on a few key dishes like the turkey or a ham, two of your favorite sides and one dessert, but leave the rest of your ideas for another time. According to Farm Bureau, by sticking to the basics you can feed 10 people a complete Thanksgiving dinner for around $50.

4. Accept invitations from others. Did you get an invitation to join family or friends at someone else’s place for Thanksgiving? Take them up on the offer! While it’s fun to host (and you should certainly open your home if you want to), it’s just as fun to be a guest.

Show your gratitude by offering to bring a dish and helping with cleanup after dinner. You’ll save money and make a friend for life!

5. Volunteer your time. Call us crazy, but there’s really no better way to build your savings over the Thanksgiving weekend than to skip your own dinner and provide one for someone else in need.

Contact a local soup kitchen or homeless shelter and ask how you can be of service. You might just find that this is your new favorite tradition. Plus, you can invite your friends and family along!

6. Be a smart shopper. Surveys

suggest the average person will drop $743 between Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Talk about an expensive weekend!

We’re okay with this number as long as you’re getting good deals, buying stuff you already planned to buy, and keeping all of your spending in line with your budget. Stay on track by researching sales and making a specific shopping list before heading to the store or sitting down at your computer.

7. Give yourself margin.

We all enjoy the holidays more when they’re not crammed with activities and stress! Less really does give us more. As you approach the start of this busy season look for opportunities to slow down.

Build space into your day and into your budget. Allow yourself a little breathing room, so you have the chance to take in and appreciate the joy that’s happening around you!

Improve Job Search Results Dealing With Job Search Pressure

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Mark_Baber/17177

By Mark Baber

This article will highlight how people generally respond to distress; and especially the distress of job search pressure and how to manage that stress and the results of your job search by effectively dealing with job search pressure.

46 NOVEMBER 17, 2017

VOL. 22 ISSUE 1116

and your job search life will change for the better.

The

conventional wisdom surrounding people’s responses to pressure typically revolve around two behavior models: The type A personality, who becomes consumed with anxiety over pressure situations, and has a tendency to become angry and unreasonable; and the type B personality, who remains unaffected and carries on with business as usual.

However, among psychologists, a third type of personality has emerged: type C. Type C personalities actually thrive on pressure, turning in their best work under stressful circumstances.

The big difference between type C and types A and B seems to be the ability to commit to a task without making the process about their own egos.

Apparently, the type A personality unconsciously ties their feelings of self-worth to success in the area of work and career.

When a situation arises that puts performance pressure on this type of person, they perceive it as a threat to their self-image - the way they perceive their value to themselves and friends and loved ones - and thereby respond from a place of fear and panic.

The type B personality has successfully avoided tying up their self-image with their employment, but in such a way that he or she is minimally, if at all, emotionally engaged in work and career. While the type B personality does not give in to the mania that will affect a type A, they also have little motivation to step up to the plate and deliver if job search circumstances demand extra commitment.

The type C personality, on the other hand, seems able to commit to whatever time and effort is required to bring in a job search goal on a tight schedule and budget.

Many of us would like to assume we are that resourceful type C personality; and the truth is... even if you are currently a type A or type B, you can become a type C personality by consciously choosing how to respond to any situation, instead of simply reacting from emotional upset or disconnection from a required task. It takes discipline, willpower and presence of mind to choose to respond in a mature, productive fashion; but with practice, those personality skills can become habit, VOL. 22 ISSUE 1116

A major part of becoming a type C personality is to recognize vicious cycles in your behavior. There are telltale signs that you are entering a destructive cycle of emotion motivated reactions to pressure filled job search situations. Whether your emotions kick into overdrive, and you become an abusive, overbearing person, or your emotions shut down and you simply refuse to invest in what’s going on around you, learn to spot the symptoms that signal the start of these cycles. For example, some people start losing sleep, or drinking too much coffee or alcohol. Some people turn inside themselves, and stop communicating and socializing with others. Whatever the early behaviors are that signal to you that you are starting a vicious cycle of negative, anti job search behavior, you can notice these symptoms and thereby prevent yourself from generating non-productive and self-defeating job search behavior patterns before they take over.

But simple recognition of these early signs of unhealthy behavior is not enough. These behaviors are habits, and like all habits are very hard to break, unless you replace them with other habits. Put positive, productive job search behaviors in place of the unhealthy ones, and you will find that your entire outlook on life, and not just your job, will change. For instance, if you normally lie awake nights during pressure periods, worrying about aspects of the situation that are beyond your control, you might get out of bed and work on one or another of the job search tasks you require to complete. The act of writing, for many people, takes the power out of problems, and once the particulars are on paper, a solution often presents itself. Or when you feel yourself withdrawing at work on your search for a good job, as the circumstances get tense, try communicating with someone - a job search counselor or advisor, or a friend, your spouse, or possibly a therapist - about your desire to isolate yourself from your stress filled job search. Again, just saying out loud what the problem is, can often take away much of the power that it has over your emotions.

In order to move successfully a less stressful job search scenario, you must be willing to follow the principles of the three Cs -commitment, confidence and control. It is through these three principles that you may build a framework by which you can make those conscious decisions to behave in a productive fashion.

Of course, this is no small job search task. All must be performed to generate a job offer from your chosen vocation. You may need assistance. There are many effective tactics by which you can manage stress, to keep the peace of mind you need to make the right decisions during your job search. For example, find yourself a good stress management program, and follow a healthy diet, with regular exercise and relaxation techniques.

For many of us, a job search is a high pressure situation. Assure yourself that your decisions are based on your commitment to get the best job out there. Do that, and you may find more strength and energy to complete job search research, and development of materials, and job search correspondence, job interviews, job interview call backs, follow-ups, and other details that must be handled professionally in order for an employer to conclude that you are the kind of person that they want to have in their company. In all truth, you are that person now or you would not be reading this article. So just remember... there is no better way to get a job than to be exactly what they are looking for.

Networking &

Gratitude

By Chi Chi Okezie

By Robin Ryan, Bestselling author of 60 Seconds and You’re Hired

Savvy networkers can improve their networking through soft skills. Being aware and sensitive to others, displaying etiquette and showing gratitude are just a few ways. Online resources define gratitude as the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness. Research and studies have shown that expressing gratitude improves health, increases optimism and reduces stress. It is only right that gratitude be incorporated into business practices including networking.

Listed below are basic skills for building and strengthening your gratitude quotient.

Before the Event

After the Event

Before you register or RSVP for a networking event, make a list of people, companies or connections you would like to make. Discern the best ways of approaching these individuals and companies.

Sharpen your language and communication skills and do extra research if necessary. Be prepared with plenty of business cards or marketing material to reinforce your brand and message. Visualize a positive outcome for meeting these potential customers, clients or colleagues. Be grateful for the opportunity to attend the event and further your networking objectives and goals.

Collect and prioritize business and social contacts made at the event.

Respond and follow up in a professional and timely manner. Use different methods of connecting and building relationships via phone, social media, email or correspondence. Communicate thoughtful and genuine messages for establishing quality and meaningful relationships. Make it a point to personally and professionally connect with counterparts and open the door for further opportunities.

At the Event Arrive early to the event or function with a strong networking focus. Polish your soft skills and be prepared to make introductions or properly introduce yourself. Deliver an excellent 30 second speech or elevator pitch. Be a good listener and ask engaging questions.

Show an interest in others and meet as many people as possible.

Re-connect with individuals during the event and follow up with new connections before leaving the function. Verbally express thanks and appreciation for spending time conversing and connecting.

50 NOVEMBER 17, 2017

A Few Weeks After the Event Continue to stay connected and add value to the relationships.

Reach out to your counterparts but do not sell or promote yourself, your business or your agenda. Use this occasion, as an opportunity to show gratitude while learning more about your counterparts.

Find strategic ways of assisting, supporting and developing. Offer to meet up for a coffee or one-on-one, or schedule a conference or video call to touch base.

interview clothes. I have gained quite a bit of weight in the last three years, and my “good” clothes just don’t fi t now. I have a lot of responsibilities, and I lost my job after the hurricane. I’m doing good to just make ends meet, and I can’t afford to buy all new clothes. I know that you have recommended going to resale stores, but I don’t think I can even swing that. Could I just tell the interviewer what my problem is and wear my best jeans?

your requirements. Unfortunately, most companies ask you to fi t your lifestyle to their needs rather than them doing the adjusting. A few companies have co-working where you and another person fi ll one job. Sometimes that means that you would work mornings and your coworker would work afternoons. That is rare, though. Another path might be to fi nd a temp agency that has some parttime or short-term jobs. It will be hard to manage your preferences, but perhaps you would be able to work more hours when your son is in pre-school or kindergarten. Good luck!

Maybe you could tr y a church near you. The problem is that there are so many people who are in your shoes exactly, but they work the hours, don’t ask for special privileges, and advance in the job. Those hard workers are your competition, and they will get the jobs with higher pay. You are asking for a fl exible employer, but it might work better for you if you were just a little more flexible in

EXPERIENCE REQUIRED

Q: I haven’t been working full-time since my son was born. I’ve done some part-time things where I can stay home with him, but I really need to start making more money because I’m a single mom now. My son is three and goes to school three days a week, so I think it’s a good time to do it. I need a job that is fl exible, though, because I want to be there when he needs me, and it has to be close to home. I’d like to work from about 8:30 to 4:00, and I have to have weekends off. When I call a company about a job, I always explain these things up front, but I haven’t been finding a lot of receptive people. Where should I look for something I can fi t into my lifestyle?

A: I actually once had a job like that at a church.

A: You don’t have to do that! Would you believe

that there are organizations who want to help you get a job? One of the best is Dress for Success.

They will let you pick out a purse, shoes, and interview suit/outfi t. Give them a call at 713-9573779. They are actually located fairly close to you.

You actually don’t want to tell your interviewer all of your issues because it’s too personal. I’m sorry that you’ve had all of these things happen to you, and I hope you fi nd a career that you love. Take care of yourself.

If you have any questions about interviewing, hiring, or work, I’d love to hear from you. Due to the volume of response, not every question will appear in the column, but most questions will receive an email response within 2 to 3 days.
