Hello, 

I invite you to come and sit with me and tell me the things you would like to say to your father and cannot, for whatever reason. I will listen. I only speak English and you can speak in whatever language you feel most comfortable with. Everything you say to me will be completely confidential.  

You are welcome. 

Bush Hartshorn 

A deeply personal, non-performative experience, somewhere between therapy and a gentle conversation with a loved one.
