Deep dives
The Importance of Listening in Therapy
Effective therapy relies heavily on the therapist's ability to listen rather than dominate the conversation. A listener communicated that their supervisor pointed out they explain psychological concepts too much without asking probing questions. This practice hampers the therapeutic relationship through an imbalance where clients may not feel fully heard. Therefore, therapists should prioritize active listening and creating a two-way dialogue to facilitate better client engagement.
