Individuals who are at the stage of exploration at which they only want a feel-good, uplifting type of approach (as they build themselves up to acquire some sense of personal power) would do better with other helpers. We believe this type of empowerment work is important at earlier stages in life (especially for those who have been profoundly wounded in their younger years). However, for those who have a desire to go deeper into intimacy and deeper into life, we believe the truth of what is is much more important to work with than attempting only to build up feelings of personal efficacy.

Those who feel like they are victims in their world or in their relationships, and are not ready to shift radically from that position, ought to seek an approach different from ours.
