Validation Reminds Us We’re Not Alone

Validation Reminds Us We’re Not Alone

Watching Naomi Feil, the founder of Validation Therapy, work with Gladys Wilson, a person with Alzheimer’s I am reminded of the evocative presence of attachment.  Using simple mirroring and attunement Naomi calls forth Gladys’ longing and basic human needs.  Naomi’s empathic attunement and tender touch reminds Gladys that she’s not alone.  It’s gorgeous to witness.  Thank you Naomi.
