Preview
"Healing depends on both the therapist and the patient. The goal of therapy is to go beyond these limits. Alone, they can't do it, but together, they have the potential to overcome any limits."
"Healing in therapy isn't just about the patient or the therapist alone. It's a collaborative effort where both play a role. The ultimate aim is to move beyond the limitations that both have individually. This means that together, they have the potential to achieve remarkable progress and break free from any constraints that have been holding them back."
1. "The psychotherapist guides and protects the patient, like a leader on a journey."
The psychotherapist plays a role similar to a leader on a journey by being a step ahead of the patient.
2. "The psychotherapist should also follow, to bring light on the path."
In addition to leading, the psychotherapist should follow the patient's journey to provide guidance and illumination, like shining a light on the path ahead.
3. "Without the psychotherapist, both would be lost."
The psychotherapist's role is crucial because, without their guidance, both the psychotherapist and the patient would not make any progress. They wander aimlessly without direction.
