When a client looks to you for answers, how do you respond?

I hold the tension, trusting the process while exploring what emerges.

I often feel pressure to fix their problems right away.

I try to slow down, but sometimes I slip back into “fixing.”

How comfortable are you in using psychoeducation in the first 3 sessions? *

I can clearly weave psychoeducation into setting the therapeutic frame.

I’m unsure what to say or how much to share.

I use some psychoeducation but worry about losing the capacity to attune to clients.

When you notice transference in the room, what happens? *

I notice it sometimes but struggle to address it directly.

I don’t always recognize it until later (or miss it altogether).

I can identify it and use it to deepen the therapeutic relationship.

How do you work with your countertransference? *

I use countertransference actively to guide my formulations.

It often feels confusing, or I’m not sure how to use it.

I reflect on it, but I don’t always know how to link it back to the client.

How confident are you in building attachment-informed formulations? *

I rarely use attachment theory in my formulations.

I actively link attachment dynamics to client formulations and treatment.

I can see attachment patterns but struggle to integrate them deeply.

In session, what happens when you notice nonverbal cues (tone, silence, posture)? *

I use them as openings for clarifying or probing questions.

I notice them but don’t always address them clearly.

I often overlook them or feel unsure how to respond.

How do you usually experience resistance in clients? *

I recognize it but can feel stuck in how to respond and my insecurities get triggered.

It feels like a roadblock or something I need to push through.

I view it as “formulation in action” and use it to deepen the process.

How skilled are you at co-regulation in the therapy room? *

I use my presence intentionally to regulate and co-regulate.

I focus more on my client’s regulation than my own.

I try to co-regulate but sometimes lose attunement.

How do you feel about delivering interpretations? *

I try but sometimes struggle with timing or clarity.

I deliver interpretations with sensitivity, timing, and clinical intent.

I hesitate—worried about saying the wrong thing or wrong time.

What role does ongoing supervision/reflection play in your practice? *

I don’t engage with it regularly.

Supervision and reflective practice are core to my growth.

I use supervision sometimes but not consistently.
