Now that we have everything we need to put together, a
unique and eye catching counseling portfolio we can begin preparing to assemble
things. You can find the Materials you
need before you begin in my "Counseling
portfolio, Employment portfolio, or both?" post.
The next step once you have your materials is to determine
what you want to put into your portfolio. The one thing to keep in mind when
you are picking and choosing what to add in is that the items need to reflect
the hard work you have done
Remember this is YOUR counseling portfolio, so you can
include the items you feel most represent YOUR work. The items I chose to
include are listed below.
1)
Table of contents
2)
Presentations
3)
Projects
4)
Practicum and Internship
5)
Counseling Handouts
6)

7)
Counseling worksheets
8)

10)

11)

13)

Accomplishments
A numerous amount of these items are things that were
assignments for classes throughout my program. I hope that like me you decided to keep
EVERYTHING that you did while completing your program. A large amount of the
projects and assignments can be used in your Counseling portfolio to exhibit
the work that you have done thus far.
Once you have the items you want to include gathered together
you can work on your portfolio Cover sheet, separator pages etc. I am putting a
pack together which you will be able to edit. You
can find this bundle on my (TpT)(Click
