Description: Do you have clients who do not want to be helped? Clients who don t trust you your profession or your service? Clients who don t want to change despite your best efforts? Then No Bullshit Therapy (NBT) is for you! Most simply NBT is about being authentic. Many people are cajoled pressured or mandated to see therapists counsellors and other helpers. Hence they are reluctant suspicious and resistant to being helped. This puts professionals in the difficult position of trying to help someone who does not want to be helped. To make things worse there are few practice models designed to engage people who don t want to be engaged. NBT creates a context for mutual honesty and directness in working relationships. Creating a context for mutual honesty and directness can be refreshingly effective especially with people who are suspicious of counselling or distrustful of the counsellor. When combined with warmth and care honesty and directness can enhance co - operation connection and trust especially if the practitioner avoids jargon and acknowledges constraints to the work. NBT is ideal for working with people who: Don t like therapy or the idea of therapy (even if they ve never had it) Don t trust warm fuzzy do - gooders or psychologisers Are suspicious of services because they have experienced trauma and have had abusive institutional experiences or unsatisfactory treatment in the past Don t see themselves as a client don t agree with the referrer's description of them or their problems and appear to not want to change Practical and engaging this book is an essential guide for therapists counsellors and other allied - health professionals who are looking for a more effective way to connect with reluctant clients and ensure they get the support they need. It may also help you create more robust relationships at work and at home.
