A call to therapists- we need to be more direct.

What clients crave is guidance and direction. They want actual advice. They usually welcome honest feedback and suggestions of how they could approach things differently. Providing a listening space is important, but it’s only a slice of the pie. Clients are paying their therapists for a service. When we strip it down like this, it is transactional. They expect (as they should) to see results from this service.
