The article discusses the author's journey in building confidence as a therapist, emphasizing that confidence coexists with self-doubt. It reveals that growth stems from self-forgiveness rather than striving for perfection. Instead of seeking external validation or certification, the author highlights the importance of authenticity and understanding one's journey alongside clients. This perspective encourages therapists to embrace their vulnerabilities and recognize that they are not there to fix clients, but rather to support them in their unique journeys toward healing and growth.
I still experience moments of self-doubt and insecurity. The difference now is that I don't allow those moments to define my competence.
Growth comes through self-forgiveness, not perfection. Accepting my imperfections has been a significant part of my journey toward confidence.
Authenticity is your most powerful tool in session. Being true to myself allows for a deeper connection with clients.
You're not here to fix-just to walk alongside. Supporting clients through their journey, rather than trying to solve their problems, fosters genuine growth.
