This is a fictional tale of an old priest, long dead. The authors, Connie Robillard and Marcel Duclos, both psychotherapists deleve into their years of work with traumatized clients to create the characters of this story. Naomi and her Native American grandmother bring to the story a rich backdrop of the world of nature, spirit and life well lived in the present moment. Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselors, Robillard and Duclos are both Certified Internal Family Systems Therapists. The basic concept of IFS Therapy is the multiplicity of the mind and the parts of us that attempt to protect and guide us, even when they are wounded. This book, while not clinical in nature, demonstates well defined parts of the personality in mood and tone. The photography of Ernest Gault enhances the text, adding interest and punctuation to this beautiful story of living life fully to the end.
