What do you do if your therapy clients are resistant to engagement?
Encountering resistance in therapy can be a challenging hurdle. As a social worker, you're tasked with guiding clients through their issues, but what happens when they're not willing to participate in the process? Engaging resistant clients requires a blend of empathy, strategy, and creativity. It's important to understand that resistance isn't a reflection of your skills as a therapist but rather a natural part of the change process for many individuals. Your role is to create a safe environment where clients can explore their resistance without judgment and find their own motivation for change.
