Sometimes pain can only be felt and no words or language can adequately give it shape...and silence in its presence is the only fitting companion.
~~Gracia Wiarda (in a book entitled "Labyrinth of Therapeutic Encounters. Collected Essays on Counselling & Psychotherapy")
I agree absolutely. Sometimes all a counsellor ever needs to do is being silent in the presence of a client who is grieving or experiencing some kind of pain.
