"Healing" seems to imply an end somewhere. I think of therapy as being about growth that will make my life, my inner life more comfortable. Growth is experienced all through life. Therapy is a way and a place to focus safely and solely on ourselves, with someone present who understands how it all works. A great expense, like medical help is a great expense. I don't resent the great expense, I am in awe of all T's have to do to get to where they want to be--in a position to help us grow.
