The Virtual Couch

CHAPTER

How to Be a Successful Therapist

The therapist is not there to interrogate you. Not at all. Our job is to pick up on either those conscious or unconscious processes, clues, things that are coming up and get the client to explore them. We are not there to push our agenda. The sooner that you can be open and vulnerable, the better. And I will say, I do now kind of in that first session where you're talking about confidentiality and all that kind of good stuff. That's a good one, Tony. Thank you.
