Is Diagnosing our Therapy Clients Helpful? [Video]

Today I wanted to *genuinely* & curiously tackle the question: is it helpful to diagnose our clients? Of course, the answer to this question isn't black-and-white. So in today's episode, I take a look at comments from the r/therapists subreddit exploring this question and offer some of my own thoughts. What do you think? Do you diagnose after your first session with every client? Have you ever "tweaked" a client's diagnosis with the intent of ultimately supporting them? I don't claim to have the answers, and certainly no direct clinical advice to offer, but I think this is an important conversation to have. And certainly, I think it's great for each of us to reflect on how we approach diagnosing and why we approach it that way.
