By Rich Simon As therapists, many of us practice in two different worlds. In the first, we see polite, well-behaved, articulate clients with solid values. They engage fully in therapy, talk cogently about their problems, listen attentively to our responses, make reasonably good-faith efforts to follow our suggestions, and sooner or later get better. No wonder we genuinely like these people! 
this was wonderful, just in time with a recent session with a complex PTSD client and shared high 5 moment in session yesterday following an odd awkward moment I never experienced before with this client. I "followed" my instinct to "explore" the high 5 moment which relieved both our anxiety and allowed progress forward. thank you. I will actively look for these moments in the future with all clients.
