Lately, everybody seems to be channeling… Let me begin by saying something that may complicate what you think I am about to say: I believe in signs. I pay attention to synchronicities.

The Impression Is Not the Intervention
I teach intuition, but I also teach discernment. For these reasons, the two belong together: suggestibility, and therapist power.
