Hi Lynette!

Thanks for dropping in on the blog. I’m glad that you commented about how important clear communication is. I talk to so many people who think that they are going to insult a therapist by asking too many questions. Isn’t it better to have this conversation in an upfront way rather than getting 3 or 4 sessions in, feeling that it’s not the right fit, and then just dropping off? That’s not good for anyone. I wonder how much information you volunteer to clients when they don’t ask?
Cheers!
Amy

I fully agree and would add that therapists expect this process of choosing and are not at all offended if they are not the right match for a particular client. Therapy is much more effective if both client and therapist are communicating about this clearly!
