Now, as I look back over these past 45 years, I can say that being a therapist was all that I had hoped for and that my experience with Jessica was more fascinating than I could ever have imagined. Whether it’s the first session with a new client or the hundredth one with the same client, being a therapist continues to have the same mesmeric appeal it has always had for me. Each client presents another opportunity to learn more about how I can help someone regain contact with a part of his basic humanness that fortuitous events had secreted away for safe-keeping. When I am able to accomplish that, I feel that I’ve helped to give birth to a new human being. What I especially enjoy about that experience is that I am able to use all of my intellectual skills and all of my caring instincts at the same time. I am so thrilled that I decided to be a therapist. If I believed in reincarnation, I’d want to come back as one. (For more info: jeffreyvonglahn.com)view less
