You are the treatment “provider” and therefore should be providing them with expectations in the informed consent. If you are not doing this or if you are hesistant, then the client will sense that and probably not be confident in your ability to help them…especially if you are not confident.

If my doctor does not seem confident in handling my G.I. stuff, then I will seek a second opinion.

Be clear. Be concise. Communicate. And hold clients accountable for treatment planning.

Good work.
