Why Therapy Is Actually Chemistry

Connection is chemistry. Much of therapy is the relationship between you and me. Because between us, through scent, chemicals pass that are active partners in the therapy — even if they are not conscious.

In online therapy, by the way, other aspects become sharpened, and the chemistry — even without the sense of smell — is still active. For example, it becomes more visible through facial expressions, body posture, and the like. Those other aspects create a sense of shared, natural presence.
