Building trust

Building trust is that trust is established not in a moment but through small consistencies accumulated over time. Keeping the promises made, staying faithful to confidentiality, and sustaining a non-judgmental attitude feed this accumulation. Trust is built slowly but can be damaged quickly by a single inconsistency; this is why protecting it is at least as important as building it. In every session the coach accumulates this trust not by what they say but by how they behave. A solid trust forms the ground on which the client can approach even the hardest topics.
