But knowing what to do with these clients in therapy can be exasperating as again and again they shift the focus of sessions away from themselves and toward others. Their unwillingness to drop down into their own emotions, thoughts, and actions can leave you feeling demoralized and drained as you spin your wheels session after fruitless session. If you’re not careful, you can end up joining the client as they look to solve their own problems by solving the problems of others.
