This girl wowed us all today. She came in excited and prepared for the appointment. She really didn’t quite know what she had signed up for, but she was ready.
No one is saying it wasn’t uncomfortable, but she was surrounded by a team- with everyone invested in her best interest and best outcome.
The truth of the matter is that this is a tough age group to treat, not impossible but challenging. They have learned their autonomy and they are expressive. I don’t accept many cases. A family has to earn the release(s) because there has to be a reason, a driving force. The family has to understand the function (and dysfunction). We never cut simply because ties are present. You come for the consultation, we put a team together, through therapy and bodywork careful preparation happens, then we release. It’s not a magic fix. There’s quite a bit of rehab afterwards as well. It’s hard work and so it needs to be the right time for a family to take on the challenge.
It warms my heart that in the end, she didn’t say “Mommy, she hurt me.” She said, “She was my mother.” Intention is so powerful. The energy we bring into a room as release providers is so powerful. I believe that in her core she knew I was “mothering” her- doing hard things while keeping her best interest at heart.
We are honored to be chosen and we are humbled when you follow the process. 🙏🏼 Thank you, P Family, for your trust and for those delicious, freshly picked strawberries! 🍓
