puzzle together. Whether your need is for yourself, your children,spouse,
or entire family, your task is to find the therapist who can best help
you. While there is excellent therapy available, there is also poor and
abusive therapy. Sometimes, people simply go to the wrong therapist for
their personality and needs. In these cases, the puzzle pieces never fit
together. One major factor in successful therapy is the relationship that
develops between you and your psychotherapist. This link goes to an article

If
you are going to work with ritual abuse survivors, you must also get educated
if you want to be effective. And you must learn to be humble. Trauma survivors
do not need to be around ignorant, modern-day Pharisees. Survivors in
pain need people who will connect with them on an emotional level, get
right down in there where they are, and listen. --Kathleen Sullivan
