Four skills that will be necessary in my field of choice are communicating, listening, emotional intelligence and critical thinking.
Communication, I would say it would be the most important as a therapist. In order to properly relate my message to my patience I will need to achieve the skill of communicating. Whether it be through body language or verbal communication. Everything we do revolves around communication, and understanding that even when we are not speaking we are still communicating is very important.
Following with listening skills, As my neighbor to most important skill to be able to obtain. I was listening is what follows after communication the way that messages are interpreted as part of the communication process. And in order to be able to effectively complete my first skill listening effectively will make sure that my messages are not taken out of context.
Emotional intelligence, I find a extremely critical skill for my career. Having ability to manage your own emotions in ways to help relieve stress and be able to empathize with others will help me a lot as a therapist.
My final skill critical thinking will help me as a therapist to apply analyzing, synthesizing as well as evaluating information that I gather from my sessions. So that I can use to circle back to my first though communicate with the patients in a way where they feel heard.
