17. Who Am I ?
I am the mirror who reflects back their pain, their fears
their voices. I am the inquirer who asks difficult
questions, who searches for evidence and patterns. I am
the companion on the journey bringing my own story to
the encounter, making possible an interpretive
collaboration, I am the audience who listens , laughs ,
weeps an applauds. I am the spider women spinning
their tales.. I am the therapist who offers cathaersis
support and challenge… I am also the stage manager
coordinating the intersection of three plays-the story
teller, the narrator and the readers inviting your voice to
the drama”
