WHY "CAN'T" IS NOT ALLOWED IN MY THERAPY ROOM
By NFSB clinician Vincent Fitzgerald, LCSW.
Originally posted on TapInto Nutley
Yes We can
Many of us enter therapy struggling with external locus of control. We blame partners for dysfunctional relationships, accuse the universe of conspiring against us, or suggest demons assume command of our behavior. When these premises arise in therapy, I strive to help clients accept responsibility for their behaviors. Finding the word "Can't" most often used by clients to avoid responsibility for undesirable behavior, I now seldom accept it in treatment.
