Client avoidance is one of the most common therapist complaints. Whether it be a failure to follow through and complete agreed upon assignments, or an avoidance of issues and feelings during therapy sessions, this avoidance often makes providing effective treatment difficult, if not impossible.
Yet, as problematic as client avoidance is, clients are not the only ones in the therapeutic relationship who avoid. As clinicians, we also find it hard to address sensitive issues as directly as we should.
