The Micro-Moments of Disengagement: Conversation Analysis and Premature Termination in CounselingSpeaker: Erin Beattie, Ph.D., LMHC-QS
Premature termination is one of the greatest barriers to effective counseling, with anywhere from 15–70% of clients leaving therapy prematurely. What happens in those first sessions, and the subtle choices a therapist makes, can mean the difference between dropout and deep engagement. This session explores therapist factors such as facilitative skills, question type, and emotional expression, and their impact on the working alliance and client retention. Drawing on original research using conversation analysis and affect coding, attendees will gain practical, evidence-based tools to strengthen relationships, boost engagement, and reduce early dropout across diverse settings.
