PG: 33
Feedback: The theoretical approaches or models, change strategies, intervention techniques, and practice protocols
we adopt in the process of helping affect client outcomes. Helpers' allegiance to the approaches adopted or
interventions undertaken also contribute. By allegiance, we mean the degree to which helpers believe in the value
and effectiveness of what they do and how they do it. Furthermore, the client's belief in the chosen approach is
probably just as important and perhaps even more so than the helper's.
