Breaking Counseling And Therapy Into A Few Simple Words In This Rhyme For Me And You
Most of us can take some advice, but are not sure about more than that! Counseling and therapy is listening and not someone telling you what to do!
Counseling
is listening
to learn
what it is to turn
this person around
love will abound
****
Listen
is my mission
for learning
what is burning
inside of this heart
love is the start
****
Love, listen, and learn
is what drops the concern
We can get through anything
Self-care is something
to do for them and for us today
setting boundaries on this day
****
Tears and laughter are important
for healing and with a bit of encouragement
it is good to do this everyday
Funny how I can turn them over on Monday
but not family and loved ones on Friday
and especially not on Saturday
****
Counseling is listening and learning to love!
Start with love, making the listening and learning fit like a glove
This is what I hoped to accomplish and more
Teaching skills, tools for the toolbox, can be a chore
and positive self-talk is important for all
when making discoveries, it can be a haul
****
Some have a set protocol
Awareness is a constant in therapy
some things take longer in psychotherapy
addiction counseling is what I did most
then I became the host
in family and couples therapy sessions
Most took about six sessions or interventions
****
I enjoyed what I did and now it is very parttime
It may be okay for me to bow out at this time
and just as important is to end this rhyme
I can go on and on and on another day
It is important for me to say, have a good Tuesday!
