"Growing up I learned that if I spoke about my feelings, that somehow made me weak. Bottling up my emotions never gave me the opportunity to practice talking about them. Working with Xavier to grow more aware of my emotions has been a daily practice and now I feel more connected to myself and others."

"Sharing things that I have never shared with anyone else was frightening for me, but Xavier made me feel safe enough to open up over time."

"Being raised in a militant and very religious home left me no room for error. Xavier helped me to see, how shame and guilt were keeping me silent because I was so fearful of being judged by others."
