I know from my own clinical work that when people are beaten and hurt, they numb out so that they cant feel anymore.

I have never met an aggressive person who wasn’t a fearful person.

The foundation for our self-image is grounded in the first three years of life. It comes from our major caretaker's mirroring.

Hell, in my opinion, is never finding your true self and never living your own life or knowing who you are.

Since the earliest period of our life was preverbal, everything depended on emotional interaction. Without someone to reflect our emotions, we had no way of knowing who we were.

Children aren't fooled. They know we give time to the things we love.

We cannot heal what we cannot feel.
