Joy

October 3, 2016

James has helped me to identify and to express the thoughts and feelings I have, both positive and negative, in an atmosphere of acknowledgement and acceptance.

James has helped me to see some of the beliefs and assumptions I make about myself, others, and the situations I face, and has gently enabled me to consider other points of view, and choices I could make.

Ultimately, the goal is to gain greater self-awareness and I think that is where we find healing. Every now and then we are lucky to meet someone who connects with us as both teacher and guide and I feel I have found this in James.

On reflection – using the sand tray – it takes me out of my head and into my heart.

I found talking with James covering my still feelings of grief after the death of my first husband most rewarding. We also discussed my own mortality and the feelings surrounding it as I enter my 76th year, usually a taboo subject but now I feel much more comfortable facing my own death… a journey we all must make. Thank you James for your listening ear.
