About Reed Finlayson
His approach highlights both what is not working and what is going well, inviting clients to consider the strengths and skills that have carried them this far. Rather than imposing solutions, he helps identify existing abilities and shows how those resources can be applied to overcome current challenges.
He offers observations, ideas, and—most importantly—questions designed to prompt reflection. He views genuine change as arising from what clients ultimately decide for themselves, and he often frames stagnation as a result of not knowing what one truly wants or limiting oneself to familiar options.
Throughout the therapeutic process he encourages questions and requests feedback to ensure sessions are helpful. He works collaboratively to develop a clear plan so both therapist and client understand the direction of work and the changes the client hopes to achieve.
