| Meet Dafka, My Co-Therapist |
|
 |
I want you to meet Dafka; he is my co-therapist. In case
any of you are
wondering, Dafka is a Hebrew word. I donąt have the exact
translation and
its use is something like, I told him to do something,
and, dafka, he did
just the opposite˛. This definition fits in almost
perfectly with the kind
of work that I do. I counsel individuals, couples and
families who are in
pain; they want better relationships; they want to
communicate more
effectively; they want to be more open, warm and loving
toward others and
are afraid of being hurt , so, dafka, they do just the
opposite. I want to
empower them to turn pain and pieces into peace and
passion.
Dafka helps me do this with clients by just being present.
I started having
my dog in sessions when I used to take him with me to the
Salvation Army
Adult Rehabilitation Center. I worked part-time on Sunday
and didn't want
to leave him home alone. When my clients, tough ex-cons,
substance abusers,
veterans with very severe trauma including post-traumatic
stress disorder,
saw Mummzer (my dog then), they would just melt. Some of
them would talk
with him and not to me.
I was amazed and now always offer my clients the
opportunity to have Dafka
in our sessions.
I would like you to meet us. Please call me at
415-474-6707 and let's find
out if you are taking actions that do not get you what you
want. You are,
dafka, doing just the opposite. I've done that, and so
has Dafka and both
of us have learned that change is possible. We would like
the chance to
help you.
Warmly,
Zora
