I started this blog as a way to reflect on my work as a coaching psychologist.
Sometimes, after a session, a small moment stays with me. A pause, a hesitation, something that almost found words. In the room it may pass quietly, yet it often marks the point where something begins to shift.
But what lingers afterwards is not only the moment itself. Sometimes a feeling echoes: a trace of doubt, curiosity, or the sense that something important unfolded just beneath the surface of the conversation.
Writing about these moments helps me return to the experience of the session — not only what was said, but what was felt, both by the client and sometimes by myself as the therapist.
These notes are not meant as theory or instruction. They are reflections from practice — an ongoing attempt to understand more carefully how experience, meaning and relationship unfold in therapeutic conversations.
The title Lessons from clients reflects a simple conviction: many of the most important lessons in this profession emerge in the encounter itself.
Tempus ante verba — time before words.
Perhaps the most important work in therapy happens in those quiet seconds where experience begins to form, before anyone fully understands what it means.
