The Therapeutic Alliance - Collaboration, feedback and the use of questionnaires. In conversation with Peter Rober.
Description
Peter Rober returns onto the podcast to talk in detail about his JFT award winning paper ‘One step up, but not there yet’: using client feedback to optimise the therapeutic alliance in family therapy, where he and his co-authours talk about the integral role of collaboration and therapeutic alliance in achieving positive outcomes in therapy.
In this episode Peter talks to us about the feedback instruments, the origins of using feedback in his practice, the development of the tools. He gives examples, tips and insights in using these in practice. We hear how Peter integrates feedback into practice in a meaningful and collaborative way for families to bring about change. Peter also discusses how fluid the tools are and can be adapted to different cultures, context and settings.
