I have had numerous interactions with different types of helping professionals but none has come close to knowing the real me like Karin has done in such a few sessions.

She sees me, she hears me and she has remained totally unfazed by me. I don’t feel judged and I don’t feel that I’m too much for her. I don’t have to dumb myself down and act like I don’t know stuff in order to not offend the ‘professional’. She is helping me reframe the way that I see myself. I  am slowly beginning to accept my full self. Karin is acting as the bridge that I am using to cross to the other side. I am in the throes of a positive disintegration but with her holding my hand, I am no longer terrified.

Our work is not yet done but I do know that I will make it across …. and more.
