Therefore, a psychologist at first consultation will have to show the customer that he can trust and be with him more outspoken. Psychologist client will offer (Often unconsciously) go through a sort of test of competence. Quite often this can happen in the following way – the customer within 5-7 minutes psychologist describes his situation, in which he is a hapless victim people around him, or victim of its own conditions and symptoms. After that, he asks: "What do you have any advice for me?" Or "What do I do with it, tell me?" Just answering the question of the client, the psychologist may begin to suggest something based on personal experience or theoretical knowledge, or something to do – treat by applying any therapeutic technique (card spread, or lay on the couch, etc.). In this case, the client may feel better right away – because he did not need more at risk to their own self-esteem to talk about themselves.
And a psychologist too easily – no need to listen to the customer and worry that do not help. Client pretends to accept help, and the psychologist thinks he has it. But in the end, both will be disappointed, since the responsibility for what is happening already assigned to the psychologist and the client took the usual passive and irresponsible position, which led to his psychologist. The Council will be inappropriate, ineffective methods, and incompetent psychologist, since the purpose of any consultation does not remove responsibility from the client, and share it with him. Psychologist in this situation, removes responsibility from the client and myself behaving irresponsibly, as more worries about the state not the client, and about their own reputation in the eyes of the customer. Responsible for ensuring that happen, of course, a psychologist – he for his work gets the money. So he takes money from the client, but still satisfy their own vanity at the expense of helpless customer.
