Six Signs of a Bad Therapist ( Counselor, Mental Health Clinician)
This video covers six signs of a bad therapist (or really six signs of a lessthanideal counselor). I m using the word counselor here not necessarily to refer to a particular professional identity, but to anybody who can deliver therapy. A professional counselor would be included in that, but also a social worker, psychologist, marriage and family therapist or some other similar profession. It s also worth mentioning here that most counselors are good. This video is focusing a lot of negative aspects that might be seen in the world counseling, but the vast majority of counselors do a good job under a lot of different circumstances. I tried to make this list fairly objective. , 1: Not being clear about licensure status. ,2. Falsely claiming doctorallevel competence. ,3 Suggesting or engaging in a friendship or a romantic, sexual relationship with a client. ,4 Incorrect diagnosing, 5 Dogmatic loyalty to one treatment modality. ,6 Confusing art and science.
