Much has happened in the six months since I published my last newsletter. As I continue to mend my broken ankle, I have expanded Sharing the Sacred to include a private psychotherapeutic practice alongside the regular gatherings we have held for several years. Sharing the Sacred Psychotherapy focuses specifically on emerging adults in university and those finding their way in the years that follow. Both my ankle injury and my practice have taught me what it truly means to heal.

In a recent therapy session, a young client shared with me that she was in the process of losing her childhood home. Overall, the changes are positive and in all sorts of logical ways that make sense but the loss is real in ways that are harder to quantify or even describe.

But they can be felt. We took the time we needed to sit with this sense of loss and made space for various parts of her, some younger, some older and some that will never get to know that special place. Much had happened there, experienced as both good and bad, and there was grief for what was not to be.
