I am often asked: “How do you know that a psychologist is competent?” I would highlight one important point, which concerns, in principle, relationships and communication. Where does it all begin? - from dialogue. Then we try to understand: do we like to communicate or don’t like it. And this applies not only to sessions with a psychotherapist or psychologist, but also to ordinary human communication. When a conversation begins and this conversation is the first and you understand that the person is beginning to show aggression towards you (active and open or passive, such as strange jokes or sarcasm).You feel that you are being treated with disdain. You are presented with a bunch of demands and complaints from the very beginning... which sound like "if... then..." and culturally call this "building boundaries." And the whole conversation turns not into a dialogue between two people who treat each other with respect and listen sensitively to emotions and experiences, but into some kind of game where both participants are in an emotional swing. As a rule, this does not lead to good things. Maybe it’s not a very good time. But when the first meeting or conversation begins with aggression, then you should be wary of your interlocutor. After all, this aggression is directed at you. And the question is your safety. And how, in such a situation, to treat with trust a person who attacked in the first meeting. And you can, of course, get together at the next meeting and discuss what happened: was it a transfer or not, was it objective or not objective, who is to blame and what to do , sort out errors, etc. But do you need it?...Especially for 5000 rubles. per hour. If you understand that you are ready, want and feel comfortable communicating with the person you have come to. You feel safe, you notice that your interlocutor is interested, he listens to you, he is not distracted and his time is your time. He answers your questions and asks his own, not for show, but with interest and a desire to learn more about your problem. He allows himself to apologize to you if he has offended you, rather than asking you, “What’s wrong?” ...And he doesn’t allow himself to say: “It was you who were offended.” If you are both ready to understand the situation and meet each other. Then it's worth it. And it is possible to check this only by meeting face to face with the interlocutor... And sometimes one consultation is enough for this... To make an appointment, just write to WhatsApp.
