If someone has had a bad experience with a professional or service this analogy is helpful.

It’s like a cup of coffee sometimes you buy them and they are great, the next time it is bad.

It depends on many factors to make a good coffee, the barista, the milk, the timing of the shot of coffee, the machine… the list goes on.

Professional help is similar in the way that there are many different clinicians, with different backgrounds, different approaches, different training, different experiences. It’s worth giving it another go - as there are many factors that go into creating a good client and professional relationship.
