My ideal client is someone who knows that you can’t have growth without change. They recognize the need for change, but require support, encouragement, and guidance as they figure out how to change. They truly want something different, but need assistance acquiring the skills to do things differently.
Progress begins when clients are comfortable seeing themselves in their complexity. Strategically timed “mirror moments” offer opportunities to see oneself in an honest, non-judgemental manner, perhaps for the first time. Clients are supported as they move intentionally in the direction of healthier thinking, healthier emotions, and healthier relationships.
Clients routinely ask, Dr. Johnson, is it really possible for me to change? I say, absolutely! Change is inevitable. However, the best predictor of human behavior, in the absence of change in the here and now, is past behavior. Stated simply, if we want to change, to grow, to expand in positive ways in the here and now, we have to do some things differently!
