How My Own Struggles Made Me a Better Therapist

I have come to the realization that no one, including myself is exempt from suffering. Suffering is a part of life. My own suffering has made me a better therapist. I am more compassionate and understanding and much less likely to come from a place of blame or superiority. While in therapy myself I experienced what was helpful for me as well as what was not. I learned new ways in which I could survive what life sent my way. My clients have also made me a better therapist and person. They have shown me the resilence humans possess in the face of sometimes unimaginable life events.
