The techniques and the tools I use are many and various, so that I can adjust to the person I have before me at any given moment, based on their goals, worries, talents, dreams, skills, competences, social background, and aspirations – even their current mood! As such, I ‘take out of my suitcase’, as it were, the best-suited tools and techniques for that person in that moment.
Sometimes I deal with Clients who are going through a phase of intense ‘confusion’ for a variety of reasons (e.g. big life changes or transitions, which may feel threatening to a person’s identity); in such a case, gaining clarity is a goal within itself, before the Client is enabled to proceed to set any further goals and move on with their lives in a desired and fulfilling manner.
