3. This was a new way for me to network with
classmates and professionals.
A great method of connecting for those who
are introverts, like me.
It‟s a valuable asset!
4. Having an online presence is like being
exposed to the whole world.
As a future therapist I need to be aware of
online boundaries and protect my private life
as well as my client‟s private lives.
Here is a great Privacy Tip Sheet
5. I was skeptical towards the professional
attributes of Twitter till I started
following other professionals. Now I see
how incredibly useful it is!

6. “What is Google+” video.
Although I do not have a Google+ account yet,
I have looked at its many attributes. Being able
to group friends separate from family in
addition to having greater privacy control,
makes Google+ an appealing social media site.
7. Social media can be tricky for a future therapist
and Facebook is no exception.
At present, I only have a personal Facebook
account and that is set to private; however, it
seems there are merits to having a professional
Facebook account. Facebook for Therapists
8. Social media opens a host of great but
potentially harmful opportunities. If a client
discloses personal information on a therapist‟s
site, the therapist could be held liable.
I found Dr. Keely Holmes‟ article very
informative in reference to this topic.

9. I assumed blogging was just an online format
for journaling. After reading and exploring a
variety of blogs I realized how wrong I was.
Blogging is a great device to share information
and professional opinions.

11. Between Twitter, Facebook, and a plethora of
other social media sites, managing the various
online identities can be a challenge.
HootSuite is one of many sites that can help
me manage my online identity including my
future blog!
12. Designing a personal/professional website isn‟t
as difficult as it use to be.
Registering a domain is also simple as well as
affordable!
There are great tools to help boost traffic to
your website.
13. The internet has allowed information to travel
around the globe at staggering speeds.
Viral videos is an example of sharing
information and having it rapidly spread from
one person to another.
Kony2012 is just one such example of the
speed of information and how fast viral videos
can be.
14. Without a clear strategy to achieve specific
goals, a professional can easily get lost in the
Social Media world.
Random blogs may be too generalized losing a
potential target audience.
As with any marketing device it is important to
understand one‟s own professional goals and
make a clear outline of getting there.
15. I had never heard of Slideshare before my
#TRMA585 class.
Now that I have had a chance to explore this
new-to-me site I am excited about the
possibilities!
16. The TRMA585 class has been extremely
informative. There is such a large quantity of
information available it is nice to have it
condensed in a way that makes it accessible to
students and future therapists.
Thank you to Robin Ashford for being a
phenomenal instructor!
