“If we view our clients in terms of the poetry of their lives, then our conception of the therapeutic relationship is firmly established as a co-creative venture. It becomes impossible to view our clients as persons in need of “fixing” according to our standards and values, just as we would not think to fix someone’s poem, or painting, or dance according to our ideas about what is “right.” Instead, our own poetic, aesthetic sensibilities are stirred in response to the poetic presence of another human being. We become interested, curious, touched, inspired. If the client is willing, client and therapist become artists together, working toward creative re-imaginings of problems and potentials.” - Catherine Moon
