Without trust, healing can’t happen. Without connection and safety, healing can’t happen.
As a seasoned therapist, the most important part of my role in someone’s life, it to see them, REALLY see them. The confidence to pause a session in order to acknowledge the lack of trust and safety from the client is so crucial and powerful.
That’s what I did. I noticed the clients body language. I noticed her inability to think or talk. When working with trauma, clients show up in many different ways. It’s important to know how to navigate and support clients through all their parts.
The healing and connection that was present after that moment of prayer, was a moment we both needed. Community, villages, traditions, connections, rituals, spirituality, and culture (just to name a few) are what help us feel connected to the world we walk on and to the people around us.
When I say, “let’s connect” I mean it. ♥️
Let me know in the comments about a moment in therapy that truly changed your life. Was it something the therapist said or did? I’d love to hear!
