Importance of the Client-Therapist Alliance

I believe, and research has shown, that the most crucial element in therapy is the "client-therapist alliance" which is the "fit" between the people in the therapy process. This includes the way you communicate, work, and interact with your therapist; your therapist may have incredible skills but if you do not feel safe, understood, heard, or respected you may not obtain all the benefits that therapy can offer. I believe in gently noting patterns, themes, and contradictions in people's narratives and behaviors in order to facilitate the self-discovery process. Many times people recreate their interpersonal dynamics in the therapy process therefore providing themselves with the opportunity to learn things they may want to change, having a genuine supportive therapist can make this process less daunting.
