I get asked all the time why I chose to name my counseling company after a car. I think Scion is a strange word but it means “a grafted plant”, so in my view, Scion means something new growing from something old. This is a metaphor for counseling because so many people come into counseling for help making real changes in their lives. However, sometimes people want to throw out many of the qualities that I believe are their strengths. Research shows that 30% of success in counseling comes from the relationship you have with your counselor. 40% of the success in counseling comes from the strengths you brought with you and only 15% of your success in counseling comes from the theories and techniques used by your counselor. So, you may not know it but you bring your future success in treatment with you as your strengths.
