Yes, that’s right, homework! I will often give clients homework assignments as part of their counseling with me. I feel that what happens between sessions is just as important as what happens during the session.
The homework costs nothing and is designed specifically to help the client gain the most from counseling and reach goals more quickly. The homework assignments are optional and for the client’s benefit. The homework can be discussed further in session.
Some of the assignments may seem very simple, but I have seen amazing results. Often, the client gains valuable insights by even attempting the assignments.
