I have worked in an NHS setting for 13 years with troubled people. I work on the basis that people tell me how they feel and I respect that. We decide together what moves them on once we forge a working partnership. No label informs me, just the person, and we face the difficulties together, that is our work. I expose my ability through a written description of my understanding back to my client that person can check how I am doing as a therapist. We are in it together.
