UB owner, Joyce Marter weighs in on some of the challenges therapists face in recent PsychCentral “Therapists Spill” series.
“Our ‘Therapists Spill’ series takes a behind-the-scenes look at cliniciansā personal and professional lives. Therapists have spilled everything from their life mottos to why they love their jobs to the best advice theyāve received on conductingĀ therapyĀ and leading a meaningful life.Ā This month we asked clinicians to share the hardest part about therapy. Five therapists reveal a range of challenges.
The hardest part of therapy forDeborah Serani, Psy.D, a clinical psychologist and author of the bookĀ Living withĀ Depression, is watching clients work through their issues. Therapy is highly effective. But it requires effort and hard work. And it requires traversing potentially painful territory.”
