Overcoming the 3 Most Common Mistakes in Psychotherapy:
Developing the Habits of Highly Effective Clinicians
Do you ever wonder if there might be a better way to help your clients? Or perhaps an easier way to do this work well? The answer is probably "yes."
In this workshop, you will learn about the three most common mistakes mental health clinicians make, even with years of training and experience. These three mistakes relate to using empathy incorrectly to build rapport, tracking symptoms rather than actual progress, and not knowing the practical implications of research in treatment planning.
Learn how to dramatically improve your effectiveness by addressing these common mistakes.
