I love looking into his eyes. Sometimes it feels too intense and I have to look away, but it's among the most profound and beautiful moments of therapy for me.

I sometimes feel this way too, but I’ve never heard it described as preverbal. I think it’s beautiful and powerful but also a bit embarrassing for me. I’m a grown up after all with kids of my own.
