@anthony, I don't know if I'm posting this is in the correct place. Please let me know if I posted these in the wrong place, or just move the post to the correct forum.

My therapist knows that I'm apprehensive about an impending background check for my teaching job. So, she's given me some useful tools that will help me prepare for the event. As we all know, we can't make a great first impression on a potentially future boss if we're sweating, on-edge, and white-knuckling all the way through an interview.

I looked on the web for samples of the worksheets she gave me and this file contains similar / the same worksheets that she photocopied for me. The packet is pretty large and extensive, and I didn't want to potentially waste time photocopying every sheet. Following the worksheets, she also gave me information about "Imagery Exposure" and worksheets that accompany imagery exposure. I'm not sure what imagery exposure actually is, but I'll check it out.

Similar to journaling, it helps to put things in perspective and write out a strategy plan before heading into something that you know will be a trigger to your trauma.

I am in no way promoting this particularly published book -- I am sharing some of the worksheets given to me by my therapist that other sufferers may find helpful and establish mindfulness of our reactions to stressful situations.

If you find any of this information helpful, let me know and tell me if you would want me to photocopy the packet that she gave me.

I edited your title a bit to reflect the post topic becasue from the title it didn't make sense why it should be in this forum and needed clarification.
