Feeling safe with others is probably the most critical aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.†- Bessel Van Der Kolk.  I believe that we all deserve relationships that we feel emotionally safety within. Relationships where we can get in touch with our emotions and feel truly felt by another person.
