My ideal client would be someone who comes into therapy struggling with life’s problems. It could be mental health issues, addiction, relationship problems, family problems, low self-esteem, guilt and shame, or spiritual emptiness. These clients want to be able to function in their life and find some measure of meaning and purpose in order to obtain peace, serenity, and satisfaction.
My approach has always been what Carl Rogers called the power of the “therapeutic relationship”, which includes: unconditional positive regard, compassion, genuineness, empathy, and congruency. We help to empower the client by encouraging them to find their own solutions, which always lie within them. One of my specialties is exploring spirituality.
Empathy is built by establishing a trusting relationship and letting the client know that you fully accept them for who they are. This relationship encourages self exploration, catharsis, and taking positive risks which foster personal growth. I would let the client know that I am there for them and they can tell me anything without judgement.
