How would you approach Alex to establish trust and comfort during his visit?
First, I would start off with introducing myself to Alex, then trying to have a regular conversation with him about himself, and the things that he likes to do so that we can get him to calm down a bit, and stop being anxious. Doing this, I could ask him about his favorite things to do, movie or show maybe, and or favorite color to calm him down. Then after this I will slowly move into his checkup at a slow pace, while reassuring him that everything is alright, and being very understanding with him. This is so that he knows i’m not here to hurt or harm him.
