Reply to comment by UniversityofBath in Hi! I’m Dr Lucy Maddox from Bath University (UK). I’m a clinical psychologist researching compassionate care and things that can get in the way. I have a new book out called A Year To Change Your Mind, about how psychology can help with everyday life by UniversityofBath

How do you respond if someone tells you things aren't going well? Are therapists taught how to do this? Does the response affect therapy going forward?

Not the Dr but every good therapist hopes to be told if the patient feels like the treatment is not going well. I can't overstate it that they want to get feedback on what does and does not work

Thank the person for letting me know and problem solve together what would be helpful going forward. It's really helpful to have feedback!
