About

Something I see often: someone describes their situation for twenty minutes and then stops, surprised, because saying it in order revealed that they had already decided months ago and simply had not admitted it. Nobody had to tell them anything. That happens more than people expect. Life transitions are often resolved before they are consciously acknowledged, and a lot of what looks like indecision is actually a decision waiting for permission. We create the conditions where that can surface. Sometimes the work is really difficult and sometimes it is a matter of hearing yourself think without interruption for an hour. My years in hospital and intensive outpatient care taught me to ask a question and then be quiet, which is a harder skill than it sounds. Silence does a lot of work. If you have not heard yourself think in a while, get in touch.
