"We learn only by doing. I have learned my greatest lessons through mistakes made in the moment. Therapists should never consider themselves to be complete in their understanding of the therapeutic process. I will continue to learn and make mistakes as long as I live in the work. Heidi Ahonen, 2007"

"As therapists, we cannot emulate the style and philosophy of others. We cannot learn by reading alone. We learn by doing. This is a lifetime journey. I am not there yet. I still have to travel. In the future, I may change many of my concepts and disagree with myself, and— hopefully—learn more. Heidi Ahonen, 2007"
