Imagine you are caught in a tornado which has whipped up everything in your life; your past and future, including all your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions. Without a safe and stable environment to work from, things can become overwhelming and confusing. As a counsellor, I am able to observe the tornado and, with compassion, encourage the client away from the tornado so they too can observe everything as it spins then facilitate the calming and exploration of what is caught in their unique tornado.
