    Excellent point. Allowing space for reflection and self discovery is important.

      It’s tough because she has a lot of trauma too. Sometimes there’s power imbalance caused by perception and trauma, wherein she feels like even if I say she should speak her mind, I’ll get upset if she does. Vigilance is necessary to regain balance. ^^
