Therapy is proven to be effective when the therapeutic relationship is built on trust and authenticity, when there is motivation and commitment for change, and when evidenced-based therapeutic practices are utilized. That said, the results of therapy are heavily reliant on the equally hard work of both the client and the therapist. I can confidently say I take pride in the hard work I put in to each of my clients’ therapy, so I expect my clients to put the hard work in as well.
