Psychology Services
In traditional therapy, the therapist is the tool for safety and comfort as their nervous systems end up helping to create the container for safety for the client. A therapist’s room is a reflection of them. The windows in the room are essential, as they provide light and access for gaze aversion which is a key tool in regulating one’s nervous system.
Also, small gestures of hospitality like tea and water are ways for clients to start to feel comfortable and welcome in our space.
