by Tom StrongView article. [PDF format - 133KB]
Collaborative therapists acknowledge their role in influencing clients and the outcomes of therapy. But the word 'influence', for many new to the collaborative therapies, can be mistakenly connoted as an undue exercise of therapist power. From a dialogic and social constructionist perspective, this article reflects on how therapists can be influential in collaborative ways. Negotiating 'shared intentionalities' with clients, while privileging their preferences in meaning-making and change[m]as part of respecting their primary authorship over their lives[m]assists therapists to employ their influence in ways that stay collaborative. Furthermore, by regarding client 'resistance' and misunderstanding as instructive, therapists can enhance their efforts to stay collaborative.
