Poetry of Progress holds space for the emotional arc of therapy. Not just outcomes, but the process. Not just milestones, but moments. Because progress isn’t always linear, and it’s rarely loud. Sometimes it whispers. Sometimes it stutters. Sometimes it laughs through tears.
These are real children. Real families. Real work.
And real hope.
