Although this next session seems to leave the client feeling exhausted (line 1) she says it was
good and positive. (lines 1,2) She appears to have been aware of fear pulling (line 3) at her
because
being powerful, beautiful and worthwhile (lines 3,4) is perhaps new and frightening
because this is a very different perception of herself. What she terms positive strength (line 5)
seems difficult to value and accept (lines 5,6) within herself because the power (line 8) that hurt
her in childhood was abusive and is therefore undesirable (line 8) to her. She both craves and
desires (line 6) power but this creates an imbalance within her because of her past experience of
abuse. It is as if she is discovering that power can be good as well as bad.
She appears to
compare herself to an apple (line 10), and she is the seeds and the core. But this is only the inside
of the apple as if she has no flesh, no skin. But then she seems to link flesh to power (line 11) as
if the edible part of the apple is the most powerful. Perhaps it is seen as powerful because it feeds
and is the energy of the fruit. The skin seems to be linked to therapy as if this is giving her an
outer covering so that she is not so vulnerable. She continues to link the skin to her learning, her
counselling,
her placement, and her supervisor (lines 11,12) which all seem to provide a
mirroring of her good qualities and support her and enable her to learn.
