Description

Therapist self-disclosure is one of the trickiest issues in therapy. Most therapists are not sure what personal stuff they should share with clients and how much of it.

In this episode we cover the 3 types of disclosure that therapists should consider in their practice, and when to use these types of disclosure effectively.

Therapists, which of these types of disclosure do you struggle with the most?

If you've been to therapy, which of these disclosures do you remember your therapist engaging in with you?

If you are considering starting therapy, which of these disclosures are you most curious about?

Tell me in the comments if any of this resonates, and share with me any topics you want me to speak about in future episodes.
