Beautiful metaphor for the therpeutic alliance

In „ A Different Reality“ by Fredric Mau i found such a beautiful metaphor. Just want to share it. 😍

(He says that to a traumtised , bitter and resignated 60 year old female with a long therapy- history )

I'm a wilderness guide. I've been through a lot of dark forests. I have the skills for it—I can start a fire in the rain, and pitch a tent. I've been through a lot of wildernesses, my own and other people's. But I have never been through your forest before, and I don't know what we'll encounter. I don't know the path through. But I know I can be with you and help you, and together we will find a path through the wilderness. It will have to be your path, because it is your forest."

Does this resonate with you?
