Catherine, Thanks so much for writing this wonderful article and sharing your story! You taught me that with experiences, you can gain a lot of knowledge and also a better understanding of what is really important in therapy. I really like the idea of having your clients draw a picture representing how they feel before and after therapy. You mentioned in your article, "I also show that I understand and care by letting go and trusting them to know their own path." My question is this... After building a deep and trusting relationship with your clients and working with them side by side, how hard is it for you to just let go?
