Onion Peeling

Onion Peeling


What I have drawn is a Mandela inside of a Mandela. This represents the role of a therapist very patiently and very delicately reaching to the inside of a person’s innermost being. If a person is struggling with doubts, fears, hurts and insecurities of the future, as I am sensitive and skillful in reaching them where they are with my words, compassion and understanding, my goal is to get them to open up.  And to see why they are where they are and what measures they may be able to take toward release, toward healing, toward freedom.  


Mirror

Mirror mirror in my hand
When I look at you what do I see? 
When I look deep inside your eyes
What are they reflecting to me and to this world?
Do I really see you as I really am? 
Or do I see you as I want to see you? 
Or do I see you as others see you?
Do I see confidence shining through those eyes?
Or do I see the fears that have been hidden for so many years? 
Do I see someone who avoids confrontation at all costs? 
Or do I see someone with confidence to face those fears 
No matter what they may be 
Knowing that God is with me
Every step of the way.
