  • A client only opened up to me about a traumatic experience, me supporting them and guiding them in communicating this experience to their parents. Me helping their parents talk with the school to overcome this experience and ensure it does not happen again. The parents appreciating my support and trust I have with their child to have this traumatic situation even come to light and then sorted out. In appreciation they bought me a bunch of flowers.
