“The sessions were very helpful for me both in increasing my awareness of the effects of dominant power on my relationships, and getting some specific things I could do to begin to break free from perspectives, attitudes, and actions baked into my ideas of what it meant to be a man, a husband, and a father. Particularly helpful was understanding the difference between anger at harm and injustice, compared to rage. I also became more aware of how my tendency to go silent or withdraw was hurting those close to me and how I used it to maintain control. It was especially helpful to experience the time in a group with other people. It added insights and invited deeper exploration along with a shared sense of “I am not alone in this.” - Paul
