Jennifer’s Answer

The best advice I have received is to be present for others. Some people tend to try to connect with others by comparing stories about themselves. Their hearts are in the right place by trying to show people that they are not alone, however, in therapy sessions, its not about the therapist, its about the patient. Listen tentatively, focus on their issues and offer advice specific to them if that is what they want.
