Words: an instrument of care

Words are functions of the mind. They generate emotions and create vibrations that touch the surrounding space. Through them, concepts and ideas can live outside our thoughts, take shape and, once spoken and set vibrating, perform a thousand actions: they can touch us, soothe us, heal us… or sometimes hurt us.

In essence, words are every therapist's toolbox.
