Abstract: | This paper explores the nature of engagement in the therapy process, and proposes that engagement may be facilitated when both client and therapist are able to develop an appreciation of each other's position within the therapeutic relationship. Some ways that a therapist can assist in this process are explored. An experiment is described in which information letters are sent to clients before the initial therapy session, as a possible way to enhance the engagement process. |
