I believe that my developing practice style coincides with Common Factors, as well as evidenced based practice. I think that a successful social worker must have the ability to connect with the client, build a trusting relationship built on trust and professionalism, and ensure that the needs of the client are being addressed first and foremost.

There are times that we may want to insert our own interests and agenda in to the work with the client, but this can severely hinder and deter the client’s interest and future participation in therapy. I think it is possible to incorporate these factors in to other evidence based

Developing your own knowledge and skills is a strategy and this pertains to a social work practitioner becoming knowledgeable in the field. This means actually reading the information that is out there and processing it yourself. The first step is understanding your own values, culture, and beliefs and applying it to the information learned.
