Answer 1

I would like to a psychotherapist in the future. The goal of psychotherapy is to facilitate positive changes in an individual’s life, for which a therapist should possess the ability to be persuasive. In order to motivate other individuals to take actions towards emotional issues, a therapist needs to influence and promote a change in their thought patterns and behaviour. This is a critical skill contributes to the success of psychotherapy to a significant extent. In our daily lives as well, persuasion is important if we want to get agreement without coercion on a goal(s) worth achieving. Very simply put if you are not persuasive you will rarely ever wind a debate or argument or get anyone to do something we want them to do if they have any resistance at all.
