Kelly MacPherson

“Life was a circle, too, wasn’t it?—from birth to death. And when group therapy was working well, a kind of miracle would occur within the circle—the birth of a separate entity: a group spirit, a group mind, a “big mind”, it was often called, more than the sum of its parts; more intelligent than the therapist or the individual members. It was wise, healing, and powerfully containing. Mariana had seen its power firsthand many times. In her front room, over the years, many ghosts had been conjured up in this circle, and laid to rest.”
