People today for whatever reason, consider hypnosis for a variety of problems - weight loss ,confidence issues, addiction treatment etc... and will not accept this type of behavior from a therapist - they need and expect to be treated with respect. When creating a personalized induction, a good therapist must always take into account a clients needs at all times, paying attention to their likes and dislikes including any hobbies and their work. It will always be an advantage to both parties to be aware of and steer clear of topics that will repel them and patterns of speech and behavior that will help them relax and put them at ease. It’s important that the affirmations mean
A written piece discussing models of supervision and its importance to the counselling process On entering into education about or practicing as a counsellor, an individual is committing to an ongoing process of supervision. The goal of this counselling supervision is to create a trusting environment in which developing students are able to enhance their skills and competence (Carifio & Hess, 1987; Hess, 1987; Ronnestad & Skovholt, 1993). It is a process of professional and personal development which encourages a counsellor to reach higher levels of competence. This in essence provides an environment for counsellors to discuss their work regularly with an experienced counsellor and supervisor. It is through these supervision meetings that the supervisee is able to reflect on their own practice, drawing from active counselling sessions, the practitioners own thoughts, feelings and reactions and is able to examine these and develop/adapt strategies for client work.
It is the most important meeting and these issues addressed should be of benefit to both parties. I will, in this essay, discuss and explain what should happen during the meeting and highlight some of the ethical issues. This initial meeting is also to ascertain personal circumstance and the communication and understanding between client and therapist. The initial consultation is to find out why the client feels he/she needs therapy and to establish a rapport. As it is the first meeting it is good to determine the continuing relationship which will progress during the therapy.
“Evaluate the claim that Person-Centred Therapy offers the therapist all that he/she need to treats clients” We need to look at what the role of Person centred Therapy is in order to understand how the above statement can work. The basis of this therapy is to encourage the client to become more self-aware without the prompting of the therapist and being non directive. Aiding the client to arrive at this point by reflecting, paraphrasing and or summarising what they have said and displaying the three Core Conditions of Empathy, Congruence and Unconditional Positive Regard. Is this therapeutic relationship between therapist and client enough in order to assist the client to arrive at the solutions they need to address their problem? I will discuss this point and also the Core Conditions, underlying philosophical influences along with Rogers’s main theoretical constructs in this essay.

Pages: 1 – 6 Word Count - 2312 Telephone number: Work Title: “Evaluate the claim that Person Centred Therapy offers the therapist all he/she will need to treat clients.” When thinking upon this first essay and thinking of Person-Centred therapy my first response was to discover what other therapies are we referring it to so I expanded my knowledge and discovered the alternatives are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy – this model is based on the client recognizing the contents of their thoughts and how these thoughts cause them to act, Humanistic Counselling – with a directive humanistic approach it provides the client a deeper understanding of who they are,
Physician assisted suicide should be a right given to all people who are suffering from a painful, degenerative, or deadly condition. Anyone who might never enjoy the luxuries of living a happy and healthy life again. Though several ongoing debates are against physician-assisted suicide, ethicists are still not the one who is responsible to make this decision. Patients have the right to free will and human dignity that gives them the right to choose physician assisted suicide. Being able to have this choice allows the patient to maintain some control over their devastating situation.
The main objective is to establish the client’s suitable for therapy and if there is a satisfactory therapeutic fit. This meeting is important for the client and therapist, where therapists instill a feeling of confidence and trust and where the rapport building begins through verbal, physical and visuals that are presented. (Maupoint 2009) Within this essay I will be discussing why the initial consultation is so important, the purpose of the initial consultation, what happens during this meeting and why it is such an important time in the client and therapist relationship. With this in mind, I will illustrate the importance of the initial consultation and the factors that an ethically minded therapist should cover to ensure safety for both parties. The initial consultation with the client, before therapy, is an important aspect of the whole procedure as this will assist in forming the basis of the therapy and for the client and the therapist to ask questions.

First impressions and opinions about a person and their surroundings are drawn upon first meetings and to be able to build a good relationship and rapport with a client it is important that these impressions of the therapist to the client and vice versa are good ones. It is important that the environment that the client is entering for therapy is positive and welcoming while still being professional there are a number of factors as a therapist that you need to consider here. Firstly the layout of the room should be carefully thought of, generally the set up should consist of two slightly off facing upright chairs to carry out consultations and talking therapies as well as an additional reclining chair for hypnotherapy sessions. The decor of the therapy room also plays a major role although there needs to be a warm and calming presence about the room too much decor can distracted from the therapy and will not improve the sessions being carried out.
