Document Summary
Asocial relationship: therapist and the client isn"t a social relationship. Psychotherapy or counselling is a form of art not a science. Time and the sensitivity of the therapeutic relationship. In our community there is a lot of cultural difference. Psychotherapy: wolberg (1967), that anybody regardless of any school or thought can agree with. Giving skills that you could take with you, helping you to resolve problems. Choice model (going to counselling to decide if i want to quit smoking, counselling model is getting through the situation) and change model (psychotherapy and working on your addictive personality) Ethics: there are very strict guides what you can and can"t do. Free and informed (what the risks are and they are not pressured) consent is required. Every time i contact the client we must put it in notes. For example: one is suicidal, and he/she is threat to someone else.
