This is a sacred healing relationship to be honoured by the therapist as each soul exposes their pain for the alchemical journey to occur. It is a relationship of deep trust and sacred privacy for each soul to find the courage to talk,release, and heal their pain and suffering. Rapport is critical for the client and therapist to enter a state of deep relaxation and trust. Both parties need to feel trust, and feel at ease spiritually for the darkness to be exposed. The therapist is responsible for creating a safe space for the client where they quickly learn that their is no judgement of them, and that nothing that's said is too weird to bring to light. As the safe space of rapport is created then over time the client learns that the inner child or whatever voice wishes to speak is allowed to express itself. The depths of the souls pain begin to emerge the more rapport and trust is present to allow the sacred alchemy to occur. Most humans have never felt safe enough to talk about their deepest stressors, fears and pains, so it has remained buried in the darkness for decades, hidden from the world. A safe rapport and good therapist, encourages the inner deep voice to come out of hiding and this is when the emotional pain surfaces.The therapist knows how to manage this process, and must have the love compassion and sensory acuity to tune into the clients emotions whilst protecting their own emotional energy. Boundaries must be maintained between therapist and client as deeply personal truths emerge that have bound someone in suffering. When rapport and confidence is high the client feels the freedom and liberation to express thoughts feelings and emotions that have never been spoken. The talk, release, heal process, occurs as the suppressed emotional energy is brought into the light. Without deep rapport, then the bond of trust simply prevents the alchemical reaction and the client stays in darkness. It is the responsibility of the therapist to build the rapport skillfully and gently depending on the unique story that unfolds. The therapist doesn't necessarily know what to do so must trust his or her intuition to guide the process and offer a loving safe compassionate presence for the emotional release.
