what is the therapeutic use of self?
It’s going to be different for everyone. For me it’s going to be doing my best to envision myself in the individual that I’m treatings position so I can attempt to grasp what they are going through. Most people will say that therapeutic use of self is drawing on past experiences, I think that is a huge part of developing a therapeutic use of self. However it is also important to balance your own personal experience (because those are unique to you) and what the individual you will be working with is going through.
