When a number of people were interviewed about who was the best counsellor for them or what modality was the best, the unanimous response was “it is about the relationship”…
If we can develop the rapport in safe and trusting environment we quite frankly have half the job done. From here the range of strategies and techniques vary depending on the client and the presenting issue; however, the key to the success in our work is in enabling the client to be self sufficient and to believe in their ability to be the author of their own lives. We have personally seen the ill effects of working to a strategy that is driven by the client or the referring clinician and know that timing to any intervention is more important than what technique is used. If you would like client information passed back to you to enhance the work you are doing with them please have the client request us to do so as client confidentiality is paramount.
