“Validation between partners is the communication of understanding and acceptance”

“The feelings may be in reaction to faulty data, but the fact is that the person feels what she or he feels, wants what she or he wants, thinks what she or he thinks.”

“Certain responses, such as understanding and validating our experience, soothe our frayed emotional edges, but criticizing or invalidating our experience, are like salt in an open wound in our hearts.”
