Summary of steps: check on how client is doing, check on how "homework" went, set topic for the session collaboratively with client, address the topic decided, set "homework" to work on between sessions, ask for feedback from the client on how to improve next session
It’s difficult to get a cbt therapist that is covered. Also many therapist claim they do cbt and they don’t. I’m on my third therapist who doesn’t practice cbt …so I’m looking for another
Asking the patient for feedback on your performance may not be a good idea with some people. It may come across as having doubts about your expertise in the field. People want be feel they are being treated by an expert, not someone with doubts.
m p like programming as if the outside world is hardly relevant. Were part of the world. The intrapsychic approach of behaviourism doesn’t suit people who don’t fit in.
@@LuigiSimoncini This is just a personal anecdote but in my opinion, asking someone something like "What I could have done better" reminds them that you're a therapist and you're a client. You're providing a service and once that service is up, then so is the artificial kindness. It creates an environment that feels fake - it's basically like finishing a video then asking, "like or dislike". You're reminded that the content creator doesn't care about you, only how well they did to entertain you. When you're building a therapeutic relationship, you want to be as genuine as possible and show you're not seeking anything else but their good health. No external motives or anything. People who go to therapy have probably gone through so much trust issues that they need to be provided hope that people will take them seriously. They don't want to feel like they're a problem that needs solving, they want to feel human while asking for help. Yes, it does seem quite minor, but mental health is extremely delicate. That's why professionals exists. These things need to be handled with care to the absolute T. Help the person in everyway possible to realize that you're here for them and nothing else matters until they're happy with who they are. EDIT: while of course you need feedback in someway, it's better to avoid asking so bluntly if you can help it. "Good work today, ____! How are you feeling?" It's pretty open ended and asking people that will generally have them naturally reflect on what happened in the session. Positive reinforcement while also giving them the power to speak freely about what they liked or not.
This is a great topic to bring up! As a LCSW and someone who has gone through therapy personally, I wished this question was asked or I wish I was more vocal on providing feedback to my therapist. I wish my therapist went a little deeper on my values, upbringing and culture and how that affected me in the current moment. She was very good and very personable but at times I felt like she wanted to resolve the issue faster than I was prepared for. I was going through cancer during that time and felt a lot of upheaval in my life.
she says, "what could have we done to make the session better?" Then within the session what could have the therapist avoided and what could have therapist elaborated more with reference to the Client. Very Nice, indeed. The focus remains on the Client and on the session . It virtually translates into - lets find out more productive ways to utilise your time with me. Regards

Please keep in mind that cbt is a process that takes commitment. Commit to a therapist and see it through.

@@tyroy57 so what do you say to people who use the systems approach? These aren't mutually exclusive at all
I personally think this is helpful . But I wouldn't ask my client, "what could I have done better 🤔
why not?
well then ask yourself
