Engagement and Relationship-building

The engagement and relationship-building pair is one of four interlocking components in our Practice Model. We talk about engagement and relationship-building as joining up with the client and creating an environment that supports practitioner and client to be mutually interested in listening and talking with one another. This is different from traditional supervision where the practitioner may have been trained to be detached and antiseptic, with an attitude of keeping the client “at arm’s length.”

When you employ skills that foster engagement, clients feel safe to say more. When this happens, it becomes easier to engage the solutions that are necessary and that support the client. Effective engagement gets the relationship off to a great start, and when it’s really working, office visits can take on a whole other level of interest, focus, and productivity.
