The Power of a Relationship

Psychotherapy is fundamentally about being in a relationship with someone who behaves in a certain way that makes the world safer for you. Almost all therapies involved exposure to something, to some intense emotional state that frightens you and or saddens you. But often it's the case that the relationship itself motivates people to have the courage to try and make sense. And I would say that one of the most moving aspects of being a therapist is seeing people have the courageto try things that really make a difference and change their life.
