The modality we use in our interactions with clients is really only the tip of the iceberg. The way we hold space for our clients, and witness all that comes into that space; our willingness to honor all aspects of our relationship; this is the hallmark of a truly holistic practice. This means that we may have to connect with parts of ourselves, the client or the world, we might prefer to ignore, deny or censor. It may be that what heals both parties is the simple willingness to be aware and accepting of what is. In this class we will create a safe container where together we can explore, experience, name, honor and hold all that is present in this most sacred of relationship.
