"When someone is cruel, harsh, mean, to not take their words personally is one thing, but to hear the silent cry within those words is another.

Empathy
"There are people who have benefited from therapy without being confronted with the past at all."

"Regression to the stage of early infancy is not a suitable method in and of itself. Such a regression can only be effective if it happens in the natural course of therapy and if the client is able to maintain adult consciousness at the same time."
