When your therapist has their training wheels on
There’s an old song lyric by The Korgis that goes, “and everybody’s gotta learn sometime” and that is absolutely the case for all Counsellors, Psychotherapists, Social Workers and Psychologists. Much like Doctors and Surgeons though it’s an interesting space in which to learn ‘on-the-job’! In medical spaces like that there is an old and established model called “see-one, do-one, teach-one” for teaching procedures to new doctors. Thankfully it doesn’t work like that for therapists.
