Dr. Stephen Britchkow prefers to see clients in their homes or offices for the following reasons EXCEPT
W: We are very pleased today to have with us Doctor Stephen Britchkow, a licensed Psychologist. So Dr. Britchkow, why have you chosen to see clients in their homes or offices rather than in your office?
M: For over twenty years being a psychologist, I have worked in both settings and compared the differences. (1) The home is usually where people feel more at ease talking about very sensitive issues. Family members potentially can support the client and work out differences. As a clinician, being in the environment where people live out their lives and work provides a lot of useful information and insight. This allows me to learn more rapidly how to help couples and families live harmoniously and work better together. People also lead very busy and stressful lives, so coordinating schedules to arrive at a psychologist’s office can be difficult. For some it is more than just a convenience that I travel to their homes, sometimes it is a necessity. Some people have difficulty leaving their homes and driving.
W: What about privacy?
M: (2) Privacy is a critically important factor. I am very sensitive about this and do everything in my power to insure my client’s confidentiality.
W: What else does a consumer need to know in choosing a therapist?
M: Therapy is a personal process that requires a special level of trust. There are many approaches to counseling based on various orientations and theories. Some theories actually conflict with one another. Surprisingly, they have almost all demonstrated their value in helping people. I utilize a variety of approaches that I believe best fits an individual or situation. I encourage clients to share what has worked best for them in the past.
W: So what made you decide to be a therapist?
M: (3) All through high school I was interested in being an engineer. I liked designing things and studying Science. Upon graduation 1 decided on a career in Law. Fortunately, while attending college I was required to take an interest and aptitude test. I discovered that I scored exceptionally high with artists and psychologists and low with Law which also included History majors in that same category. I took the results seriously. I had a passionate interest in painting and sketching and really liked the psychology courses I had taken and vowed to myself to take additional ones to help with deciding my major. The testing feedback brought to mind when younger I designed my own original personality tests and gave them to some of my friends. It never occurred to me until I had this career testing that just doing this might signal a genuine career interest. As a result I acquired an appreciation of the value of testing and assessment in my work as a psychologist. It is an essential part of making good decisions in my clinical practice.
W: How do you listen to people’s problems day in and out? It would drive me crazy.
M: There is a risk that can come from doing therapy too many hours a week. I maintain my own sanity by living a balanced life that includes hobbies and interests exercise, I belong to a health club and spending time with family and friends. It helps immensely that I find joy in being a psychologist. The threat of burn out can be very real if I did not place a limit on the number of hours that I work with clients. I schedule no more than twenty-five clinical hours a week.
W: Today many people are concerned about the threat of terrorism. Do you have any advice about how people can talk to their children to reassure them?
M: Children can sense how worried and insecure adults are about terrorism if they are with them a lot. Acknowledge honestly to yourself first how much this has affected your life. It might help to write these disturbing thoughts down and discuss them with other adults who are close to you. Your neighbors and friends can be good sources for support and healing. After all, what has been violated is our collective sense of security. Everyone shares similar apprehension. None of us are alone with fears about terrorism. (4) Children will appreciate your honesty. Encourage them to talk or draw pictures that express their concerns and feelings. Avoid over exposure to graphic media coverage on the TV. Watching repetitive news stories about terrorists from around the world tends to make the actual threat to us more immediate and likely to happen than is the case. Something positive to take away from all of these threats that children should hear is the message that life is precious, not to be taken for granted. It is important to love and cherish whatever time we have available to spend together. This is good for all of us to remember regardless of what evil acts are committed against our communities.
W: (5) So what expectations should one have about experiencing success with counseling?
M: The therapeutic relationship is probably the most important factor. It is the relationship that heals usually more than any specific approach utilized. You must feel accepted, supported, valued and that you are actively listened to. Someone in therapy should expect that they can trust the guidance offered and that the counselor has their best interests in mind.
W: What else should they know?
M: That their psychologist is keeping up with the latest developments, can rapidly process what they share, and has the life experience and wisdom to be able to help them.
W: How can a consumer find this out about you?
M: There are links on my website for my Resume. Conferences and Workshops I have attended. The former is pretty self explanatory. I have taken the somewhat unusual step of listing my broad training experiences. It really gives someone investigating my background additional insight about what areas interest me and where some of my particular strengths are. Additionally, I read extensively pertinent journals, books in my field and meet with colleagues for professional collaboration. Wisdom and understanding can come from continuing education and years of working in the field but it may not. It is a very individual decision that people form.
W: Thank you for your time. I appreciate the care you’ve taken to explain everything.
M: Certainly. Feel free to contact me by e-mail or phone if you have any other questions.

辨别题。当主持人问心理学博士为什么更倾向于到客户(client)的家中或办公地点去出诊而非在自己的办公室时,博士提到了一般人在家中都会feel more at ease,更愿意谈论敏感话题,也提到了在熟悉的环境中,人们的表现更容易给心理医生提供有用的信息,有助深入了解人们心理(information and insight),第三个理由就是方便客户(convenience)。
