What made this journey so powerful was Pleunie's presence, her calm voice, her curiosity and her willingness to feel with me.

allowed me to go where I needed to go and because of that, a part of me that had been left behind finally knew, “I’m not alone anymore.”

That’s what Homecoming felt like for me, not wanting to change the past. Just changing the relationship I have with the boy who lived through it all, by himself.

Pleunie took me on a journey and she did not let me off the hook
(in a compassionate way). 

Reluctant - that was the part of me which to be honest has been the quickest part to hide on me. I knew there was a part there, could sense it. The space she created, all allowed Reluctant to be honest and open up.

I have sat with him, been open to listen and have felt him pain, so release was possible.

I immersed myself and have already taken many steps. Yet, a remnant remained—something I couldn’t quite reach on my own.

From the very first contact, you create a safe space. You helped me reconnect with my inner strength—healing and releasing, peeling back layers, returning to the core, and letting go of what no longer serves me. It has brought me so much, and still does.
