This rings true for me. I think that one of the reasons why I chose this line of work, and why I keep doing it, is because listening to my clients' stories often trips something in me that allows me to access something-- emotion, old thought patterns, occasionally experience-- from my own life. It can be like a springboard for working on my own issues. And I think if I can see this wooden and apathetic space I'm in as some kind of helpful information or message, that would be good. I'm just not there yet.
Thank you, Anne
