Rapport: a close and harmonious relationship in which the people or groups concerned understand each other’s feelings or ideas and communicate well. This concept underpins the nature of the relationships we establish with our patients, stakeholders and referrers alike.
The therapeutic relationship is known to be the most important aspect of psychological treatment. Establishing rapport with our patients enables us to gain the trust that is needed, allowing people to embark on a journey of meaningful change with their therapist – persisting even as we discuss difficult issues.
While many psychologists offer general support, few are dedicated solely to the complexities of psychological injury within compensable frameworks. That’s where we make a meaningful difference.
Rather than exploring broader life history, our work centres on empowering someone to return to a pre-injury level of function wherever possible, or else helping them adjust to the best possible version of their ‘new normal’.
This gives us a rare depth of expertise in managing psychological injury in the workplace or after an accident on the roads.
