"Jack, I have learned so much from you, my mind has expanded with so many new ways of viewing myself and my thoughts/beliefs. I didn’t know I could see things in these new ways. Yet I have learned and saw first hand that I can be kind to myself and I don’t need to live in black and white modes of disaster, there is something in between. That despite what has happened to me, through acceptance/compassion a softer life is still available.

 

All the great techniques aside, I am very grateful to have been able to have worked with you. Naturally, I didn’t know what to expect when I first met you on the video call so to have consistently received so much support and warmth from you at my lowest point has helped towards restoring my faith in the common thread of goodness amongst people. The idea that someone might see me, hear me and accept me, maybe? In this state I’m in today? - is no longer a question because you actually gave me that, in practice.
 

Furthermore, you have consistently made me feel like I’m smart and deserving. I know therapy is ending but I am grateful that I’m going to get to keep all of these skills and gifts with me for the rest of my life.

 

I am very inspired by you and your warmth and I hope I can make people feel as valuable as you have made me feel."
