Why do you give homework?

We give clients homework depending on the situation. Homework can increase the effectiveness of your sessions, can solidify information given in session, and can speed up the counselling process.

Always make sure that if homework is given, you understand what is required, and write it down if you tend to forget. Please remember we give homework for a reason!

If it is any consolation, we do homework for you too. We write case notes in order for us to understand what is happening, and it gives us a chance to reflect on the session and identify any areas that need addressing that may not have been so obvious during the session.

We also plan for your next session, so we can try and help you as much as we can.
