S1E4 How you begin your therapy sessions
How do you begin your therapy sessions? Do you use specific questions or perhaps an exercise? Do you sit in silence? Do you do the same thing for everyone?
In this episode Dr Natalie Stott invites you reflect on your current session openings . Often overlooked due to routine, how we commence sessions can significantly shape the how the session develops. Drawing insights from a poll conducted among therapists, this episode explores different approaches for making the start of each session impactful and tailored to your client's needs. Natalie breaks the results from the poll into the following sections:
02:12 Self reflection
04:17 Agenda setting
07:08 Client-led beginnings
11:31 Therapist-led approaches
14:11 Mindfulness openings
17:48 Creative methods
Consider trying a new technique discussed in this episode and see how it influences your therapy practice.
