I realize now that the work is defined as an encounter between two people and it’s very dynamic and I’m not running the show. I’m part of, I’m providing an opportunity for this other person to safely talk about and explore issues in their lives related to. Speech voice fluency, articulation, what they notice, what their concerns are, what their fears are, what their dreams are, what their wishes are, what feels good to them, what doesn’t feel good to them.
— Dr. Phil
