In this video, we break down the common misconception that using trendy or “cool” language is the way to connect with younger clients in therapy. While it might seem like a shortcut to rapport, true connection comes from understanding and being present with your client, not from throwing around the latest buzzwords. When we let clients express themselves in their own way and ask questions like “help me understand,” it builds a stronger, more authentic relationship.

Join us as we share insights on how therapists can stay relatable without sacrificing genuine connection. We’ll also dive into some of the funniest trends we’ve seen in the therapy room and how to navigate them without feeling “aged.”

At the end of the day, it’s about showing up as your real self—and that’s what makes the difference.
