The
therapist is non judgemental, accepting and permissive. The therapist
offers unconditional positive regard and empathy. The client feels
valued and listened to. This allows the client to increase their confidence
and develop inner resources to find answers and achieve goals.
Psychodynamic counselling
Focuses
on childhood relationships as an important influence on current behaviour,
and the client/ therapist relationship (the dynamics) and how that
may reflect in relationships with significant people in the client's
life. Also looks at the importance of the unconscious and subconscious
thoughts as an influence on behaviour.
Motivational interviewing
Helps
motivate people towards change. Ambivalence is seen as normal. Confrontation
is avoided, resistance is unchallenged, as the client can only change
at their own pace. The clients finds solutions to their problems,
as their confidence to change is built up
Solution focussed therapy
Focuses
on the client's goals, and the changes needed to achieve them. Emphasis
is on goals rather then "problems".
