But, had to edit as I was already the 500 word limit (shhh!) :) These characters are part of a book and there is much more to her breakthrough. Often, therapy is baby steps, or it's two steps forward and one step back. This story continues, don't you worry!

Shutting down doesn't always mean that you're done experiencing the moment, and Kate seemed on the verge of a breakthrough of sorts. I'd like to see where the conversation would have gone on the next page.
