This podcast is the narrated version of my article 3 Supportive Strategies for Strengthening the Therapeutic Alliance.
The therapeutic alliance is a base from which therapy can happen. And in order for that base to develop, we need to be a certain way for our clients.
In this episode I talk about:
- A real, human alliance
- Therapeutic alliance, not reliance
- Emphasize the therapeutic alliance in the way you speak
- Remember that therapy is a learning situation
- Heighten expectation through your confidence
