Today, I woke up with a jolt.
In the social work context, if a client doesn't feel helped by me, then I must have failed in my helping. I have not met their needs, nor made their life better. It may have been an honest mistake on my part, but what was wrong, is still wrong. If it was a misfit of intervention and need, I can still try to change myself, my theoretical framework, or my methods. But what it was just a misfit of worker and client?
I'm moving my heart elsewhere. There is much work to be done.
