One of my favorite tenets of the Functional Medicine model is that of the therapeutic partnership\u2014a constructive relationship established between patient and practitioner.<\/p>\n

Yet my concern with the common interpretation of this term is that we continue to put pressures and expectations on the practitioner to walk over hot coals or extend herself beyond reason, without a full understanding of what a therapeutic partnership actually entails.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not one where you become the servant to your client\u2019s every whim. Nor is it one where your client simply listens to your wisdom (without sharing her own) and takes orders.<\/p>\n

So, what is a real<\/em> therapeutic partnership?<\/p>\n

Great question!<\/p>\n

Vulnerability<\/h3>\n

The therapeutic partnership is one where both you, the practitioner, and your client are open and vulnerable to the insights revealed by the clinical process.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You\u2019re vulnerable, not because you share your own life saga, but because you freely admit that you do not have a quick-fix.<\/p>\n

Because you two are just getting to know each other, it\u2019s not assumed (or it shouldn’t be) that you\u2019d have all the answers to their every problem from the first encounter. (How could you?)<\/em><\/p>\n

You do not have a magic pill or a silver bullet solution. What you do<\/em> have is time, dedication, attention, physiological comprehension, and trustworthy frameworks that will help guide you towards the answers your client needs.<\/p>\n

A therapeutic partnership is a relationship where history is established and connections are made that enable the clinician to see the appropriate path more clearly and the patient to make incremental and meaningful changes.<\/p>\n

The therapeutic partnership slowly but surely changes the terrain<\/a> for your client (which is where the healing really happens). Their internal terrain makes a shift through the diet, lifestyle and therapeutic interventions you employ, and the healing terrain (and potential) shift because the relationship itself changes the hormonal milieu.<\/p>\n

Did you catch that last part? It\u2019s so important, I\u2019ll say it again:<\/p>\n

The healing potential of your client will shift in response to your interactions with her because the relationship itself changes the hormonal milieu.<\/em><\/p>\n

Trust and Empathy<\/h3>\n

Trust and empathy lead to a chemical environment that induces the healing potential. You have the opportunity to activate the transformation from stuck to healing with the practice of Functional empathy.<\/p>\n

When both you and your client have the opportunity to be vulnerable in a way that only you can provide, two magical things happen:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Answers are uncovered, and people who might have lost hope can now get well<\/li>\n
  2. The relationship itself causes oxytocin to flow in both you and your client. This creates more trust and connection, while reducing your client\u2019s desire for the quick-fix. In other words, the oxytocin helps her open up, comply, and stick to the goals you and she set.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The problem you\u2019re facing in your practice today could be anything from noncompliance, to not finding resolution (root cause<\/a>) for your clients, to feeling like your clients are holding back information or emotions, to feeling like you just don\u2019t know enough to help them.<\/p>\n

    The solution is the therapeutic partnership. It\u2019s the terrain in which healing happens.<\/p>\n
