Humans are very fragile, yet resilient. Part of this resilience is that we are social beings. In other words, people need other people to survive and thrive. Thus, it must come as no surprise that Counseling is a career and that talk therapy works! Talk therapy (Counseling) can work very well, for all communities of people. Yet in order for the “talking cure” to work there must be a true connection between clinician and client. In my clinical experience I’ve found that real life changes happens when clients are motivated, honest with others and with themselves, and have or are open to a growing capability of trusting others. I hope to be that ideal clinician for you!
